1) A review of Christ Formed In You: The Power of the Gospel for Personal Change by Brian Hedges
This has been one of the best books I’ve read this year. Brian writes about sanctification in a way that is comprehensive and comprehensible. This book has and will continue to prove useful to me!
2) The Grass is Always Greener: The Spiritual Danger of Never Being Satisfied
I’ve been struggling with contentment for a while now and as I’ve sought to wrestle with it I am learning a lot about the spiritual side of discontentment…it can be very dangerous.
3) Grass is Still Just Grass: Contentment is a Choice
Contentment is not some emotion that we receive, it is something we choose. I’ll unpack that idea next week.
4) Tending to Your Own Yard: Cultivating Contentment
You can cultivate contentment in a number of ways, but it requires consistency and personal commitment. We’ll talk about that next week.
5) Grass Will Die: Full Contentment Never Comes In This Life
The reality is, of course, no matter how much you buy or deny you will never be fully satisfied in this world. Only Jesus can fully satisfy and we must look to him and wait anxiously for the fulfillment of Psalm 16:11.
