Gluttony vs Contentment


Listen Later

Where do we go in times of need and comfort? How can we think about comforts as an invitation to rely more on Christ and not on the temporary fixes of this world? On this episode, we explore the concept of gluttony: what is it and what does the Bible have to say about it? By examining the impact of modern habits like phone overuse or streaming services, we highlight how distractions can distance us from genuine connection with God and others and make finding contentment elusive.
