Listen "Ready, Set, Let’s Go – Feels Like A Con-Tentment"
Episode Synopsis
Feels Like A Con-Tentment
Are you truly content, or just telling yourself you are? Do you trust God’s provision, or are you still craving what He called you out of? In Exodus 16, the Israelites had seen God’s miracles, yet they still complained, longing for the “comforts” of Egypt—even though it meant slavery. We often do the same, forgetting God’s provision and focusing on what we think we lack.
God provided manna, but He also used it as a test—to see if His people would trust Him daily. True contentment isn’t about having more; it’s about trusting God’s provision and following His instructions. This week, we’re asking: Are you CON-tent or truly CONTENT? Let’s break free from false security and learn how to live in daily dependence on God.
Exodus 16
Discussion topics
When you hear the word "contentment," what comes to mind? Do you see it as peace or as settling for less?
Exodus 16:3 says the Israelites longed for the “pots of meat” in Egypt. Why do we sometimes look back at our past with selective memory, forgetting the struggles that came with it?
Numbers 11:4-6 mentions that the “mixed multitude” stirred up complaints. How can negative influences or wrong mindsets affect our ability to be content?
God provided manna daily, but He also set limits (no hoarding, gather only what you need). What does this teach us about trusting God’s provision today? Are there areas in your life where you struggle to trust God’s timing or provision? What would it look like to release that worry and trust Him daily?
What’s one way you can shift from "CON-tentment" (faking peace) to true contentment this week?
