    based on 24 ratings
     | 5,171 views

    (1) Contentment has to be learnt, and (2) it cannot be found in possessions. (3) True contentment can only be found in Christ.

    Today we want to talk about contentment. The lack of contentment is one of the reasons why many people, including Christians, do not have joy in life. We feel that we do not have enough. Something is always lacking. And we have to get it in order to feel fulfilled and happy. A few years ago, ...read more

He was respected and he’d even made it on to the ruling council. Life couldn’t get better. He was the ideal ...read more
