The Roadblocks to Contentment
What keeps us from enjoying more contentment in our lives? When we become stuck in a mindset of comparison, criticism, or cynicism, we will find that contentment is impossible to find. In our search to be content in all circumstances, Jesus will point us to Gospel truth and confidence in the care of our Heavenly Father.

From Series: "Chasing Contentment: What Jesus Said About Worry, Money, and Image"
Jesus said, “Do not be anxious about your life.” Well, that’s easier said than done! We all feel the pull toward some version of the good life—however we choose to define it. In our own way, we each want to be noticed, respected, seen, secure. Modern technology and social media exploit our impulse to perform, increasing the pressure to play the comparison game. Against this constant struggle, let’s dive into Jesus’ teaching about our worry, money, and image as we seek to choose a better path: contentment.
