An Unfamiliar Virtue (Part 2)

Speaker: Pastor Joe Ricchuiti
Series: An Unfamiliar Virtue, Philippians
Passage: Philippians 4:10-13

Bible Text: Philippians 4:10-13 | Preacher: Pastor Joe Ricchuiti | Series: An Unfamiliar Virtue, Philippians

1.  Signs of discontentment:

-when what we have is never enough

-when we are in a constant state of debt-can’t pay our bills

-when primary relationships are affected (marital, children, etc.)

-when we seek friends for the wrong reasons, for what they have rather than for their character

2.  Steps to contentment

-evaluate our view of possessions/money

-understand the temporary nature of money/possessions

-cultivate thankfulness/gratitude toward God for provisions of necessities

-test our priorities (look at our checkbook and calendar), are we living for what will pass away or for the eternal

-find our security in what lasts, the presence of and promises of God

-abide in Christ and allow Him to strengthen us
