The Song of the King and His Apostles | Psalm 23 | 25 January 2026 | 6pm
from FAC Podcast · host Figtree Anglican Church
In tonight’s sermon, Peter Lenehan explores the theme of contentment through Psalm 23 and Mark 6:30–44, challenging the cultural mindset of always wanting more. He highlights how modern consumerism fuels discontentment, even though both Scripture and lived experience show that material things never truly satisfy. Using the imagery of God as a shepherd, Peter points to the deeper rest, provision, and security found in God alone, both in good times and in life’s darkest valleys. He ultimately calls listeners to shift their focus from temporary luxuries to eternal hope in Jesus Christ, where true and lasting contentment is found. 5 Questions to Think About Do I truly believe “the Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing,” or do my daily habits suggest otherwise? Where do I most often look for contentment—God, or material things and circumstances? How does our culture shape my expectations of what I “need” versus what is actually a luxury? What would change in my life if I genuinely trusted that God’s presence is enough, even in hard times? How can I practically shift my priorities from accumulating more to living more generously? 3 Key Takeaways True contentment is not found in possessions but in a relationship with God, who provides rest, guidance, and security. A constant desire for “more” can distract from joy and spiritual growth, even when we know it doesn’t satisfy.
