Episode Synopsis

Are you truly content -- or just chasing happiness? In this message, Dr. Gene Mims unpacks the difference and reminds us that real contentment isn't found in possessions, circumstances, or even success. It's something deeper -- something we must learn through trusting God and walking with Him daily.🗝️ Key Topics(2:47) Contentment isn't the same as happiness.(9:21) Culture breeds discontent.(14:37) Christ brings true contentment.📖 Key Scriptures1 Timothy 6:6-8Philippians 4:11-131 Corinthians 3:18-23⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠💬Quote from the Episode"Contentment is not a loss of ambition. Contentment is not saying, 'Well, this is the way I am.'...Contentment is saying, ' I believe in a God who loves me and is going to use me, and has continued to bless me and has warned me about chasing the wrong paths in life.'"📍Join Us In Person: The Gathering at 840⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠6315 Arno Rd, Franklin, TN 37064⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Life Groups for all ages: Sundays at 9:30 a.m.Main Worship Service: Sundays at 10:45 a.m.Visit us at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://www.thegathering840.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠🙌 Stay ConnectedFollow or subscribe to The Gathering with Dr. Gene Mims wherever you listen.If today's message encouraged you, share it with a friend and leave a review.
