The Big Idea: There is a secret from God that is only learned one way.
Philippians 4:10-20 (p. 1013)
A critical and personal attribute for life is CONTENTMENT.
What is It? - A state of SATISFACTION or peaceful HAPPINESS.
How Do You Learn It? - By being challenged with almost NO ONE to help you. (v. 15)
There is a Secret From God For You: - You can DO ALL THINGS THROUGH CHRIST. (v. 13)
Where Do I Acquire The Strength? -Through DISCIPLINE Hebrews 12:7-13 (p. 1041 ) Proverbs 4:20-27 (p. 545) James 1:2-8 (p. 1043)
CONTENTMENT is closely attached to GENEROSITY because both are learned and require trust in God. (v. 17-20)
