As we travel, we understand the horizon is always moving. The same is true in our desperate search for peace. In this program, Chip tells us peace is not a thing to be achieved, but a secret to be discovered.
Introduction: What would it take for you to be content?
Content: Happy enough with what one has or is; not desiring something more or different; satisfied. -Webster’s Dictionary
The Problem: The horizon is always moving.
Two Historical Solutions:
The Question: How can we be satisfied…today?
Four Principles – Four Practices:
Principle #1 - Our contentment is not dependent on our circumstances.
Principle #2 - Contentment is an attitude we learn not a thing we achieve.
Principle #3 - Prosperity does not have the power to give us contentment; nor poverty the power to take it away.
Principle #4 - Only Christ has the power to give us a contentment that transcends all life’s variables.
Conclusion: Contentment is not passive acceptance of the status quo, but the positive assurance that God has supplied one’s needs, and the consequent release from unnecessary desires.
