From the author of Margin comes the secret to contentment.
In a world that honors outward achievement, tells people they'll never have enough, and encourages an impossibly busy life, peace and contentment can feel like a distant dream. But Dr. Richard Swenson shows that it really is possible. We can experience the contentment we long for - the peace, the fulfillment, the joy. It's available for our relationships, our finances, our career, our spiritual walk, and every aspect of life. But it is found in only one place: in Christ. Come along on a journey of discovery and uncover the simple truths and practices that inspire a truly contented life.
