Episode Synopsis

Relentless toil and the pursuit of wealth that is driven by envy and selfish jealousy ultimately leads to a meaningless existence. We are called to work hard for God's glory – but life is more than work. Our value is not based on our work or the stuff that we seek to build up and accumulate; our value is because God loved us, regardless of anything else. He loved us enough to give us Christ Jesus, appoint us as heirs of righteousness, and give us a spirit of contentment. We can rest in the Lord, knowing that we are treasured by Him, and so we don't need to serve money or be filled with selfish ambition for our own little kingdom. We can rest in Christ!
