Episode #034: Beauty Will Save the World, Part Nine - The Religion of Consumerism with Rev. Dr. Mark Clavier, Part 1

Welcome back to The Wayside Podcast!

For the final two episodes in our "Beauty Will Save the World" series, Wesley and Ryan spoke with Rev. Dr. Mark Clavier about practical ways that individuals , communities, and churches are embracing this call to share the beauty of Christ with the world. Our guest today has a stark message about the consumeristic world we live in, but also a delightful vision of the church’s role in our day and time.

Rev. Clavier is an American who is currently serving in Wales. He is juggling a few roles as the vicar of St Mary’s Church in Brecon, while also being the canon theologian to the Diocese of Swansea and Brecon and he’s the Chaplain to the Bishop.

Be sure to check back next Thursday for part two of this conversation with Rev. Clavier, wherever you get your podcasts.
