I’ll be happy after: the promotion… the new house… the next vacation… a
different car… you fill in the blank. Why is a contented, satisfied life
so evasive? What deep hungers drive the out of control accumulation,
reckless purchasing habits, and crazy consumer lifestyle for so many of
us? And why are we often driven more by what our neighbors own than what
will truly make us happy?
Filmed at biblically significant historical sites in Turkey and Greece
and in the United States, this six-session, video-based Bible study
provides an inspiring and transformative vision for living a deeply
contented life in the midst of our consumer-driven, materialistic and
often shallow culture.
Pastor Jeff Manion weaves masterful contemporary
storytelling with rich biblical, historical, and cultural background,
revealing the similarities between the struggles of today’s culture with
that of the New Testament churches.
Satisfied explores the way in which the messages to the New Testament
churches were received by the original readers and how these passages
can alter the way we view wealth, accumulation, and ultimate contentment
today.
Designed for use with the Satisfied DVD (sold separately).
