The Secret Of Contentment

Contributed by Denn Guptill on Jan 22, 2022

For many people, Philippians 4:13 is their favourite message, but they never look at the verses preceding that verse of following it. This message looks at what true contentment is.

It serves as a centre of our worship, our learning and study, and it’s a place for our communion together. It’s a good gift of God to us.
