More or Less: Choosing a Lifestyle of Excessive Generosity

In More or Less, Jeff Shinabarger calls readers to create their own social experiments to answer the question, ?What is enough??  It all started with one idea: What would happen if we created a culture in which we gave away whatever was more than enough for us? How would our habits change if we shed the excess of money, clutter, and food in our lives? In More or Less, readers will learn how to draw a line of ?enough? in their consumer choices, how to see generosity as a chance to experience freedom in a greedy world, and how to make small changes now that will help others forever. As Shinabarger reminds them, defining ?enough? is more than a responsibility-it is an opportunity to give hope. With a foreword by Bob Goff. Review "How much is enough? In this important and engaging new book, Jeff makes it clear that when it comes to generosity, connection, and community, too much isn't enough." -- Seth Godin"Jeff Shinabarger lives this timely message every day. The ideas he gives us in this book are grounded in the credibility of a life that embodies the possibilities." -- Gabe Lyons"Jeff has given all of us something really beautiful in this book. Jeff hasn't just sprinkled a couple good ideas in these pages; instead, it's a gully washer of love, creativity, and engagement that a parched world desperately needs. You're about to get caught in the terrific hurricane of kindness that surrounds a guy who loves people well."  -- Bob Goff"Not only is the creativity of Catalyst due to Jeff's leadership, but he has led the charge in meeting the needs of those in poverty through the movement. Jeff is the kind of leader that we all wish we were but don't have the courage to step out and be. He sees the future before the rest of us even have a glimpse." -- Brad Lomenick"I genuinely believe that the more you give away, the more you will enjoy what you keep. This book will challenge you to do just that." -- Mark Batterson About the Author Jeff Shinabarger is a social entrepreneur, experience designer, cofounder of the Q event, and creative director at Catalyst.
