The Desire for More: The Endless Pursuit - February 22 2026

The pursuit of “more” can quietly entrap the heart, convincing us that just a little extra—money, success, status—will finally bring peace. Yet Scripture reminds us that “godliness with contentment is great gain.” True contentment is not having everything we want, but trusting the hands shaping our lives and resting in the peace we already have with God through Christ.The message contrasts the false promise of riches with the greater treasure found in pursuing righteousness, faith, love, and godliness. Greed is more than loving money—it is asking money to provide what only God can give. Instead of striving harder for satisfaction, believers are called to replace false treasures with the lasting hope rooted in God’s love. Through reflection, prayer, and even practical steps like examining our budgets, this sermon challenges us to consider where our hearts are anchored and invites us to pursue contentment grounded in Christ alone.Scripture: 1 Timothy 6:6-11Guest Speaker: Nick Heusterberg
