Americans are pretty focused on acquisition. Getting more things, or better versions of what they already have, is a lifelong pursuit for some people. Television, movies and music echo this theme often. Pastor Mark will be teaching that this pursuit can sometimes come with you into your life as a Christ follower.

Pastor Mark will illustrate how this comes up in your life, so that you can learn to avoid it. That will free you up to live a life that’s not only pleasing to God, but will teach you contentment.
