Jonathan Sole Season 4 Episode 15

In a world shaped by constant visibility and comparison, contentment has become increasingly elusive. From social media to ministry metrics, we are regularly tempted to measure our lives against others rather than live faithfully before God.

In this episode, we explore what Scripture teaches about contentment in an age of comparison. Drawing from Philippians 4, Galatians 6, and 2 Corinthians 10, we consider how comparison distorts our understanding of faithfulness—and how true contentment is learned through trusting Christ in every season.

This conversation calls believers to resist the comparison trap, recover a biblical vision of contentment, and cultivate regular rhythms in daily life to live faithfully.
