Скачать или смотреть The American Dream is Destroying Your Faith

The American dream can become an idol that distracts from God’s kingdom and true contentment found in Christ. True success lies in being consumed with God, living with an eternal mindset, and seeking to glorify Him in all aspects of life. Success often ties a person to the world, but this world is fading. Contentment, however, is the key to true enjoyment of life. “The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.” We entered this world with nothing, and we will leave with nothing. Be content with the things of God, for the pursuit of worldly satisfaction will never fulfill. The American dream has shifted over time, from preparing for eternity to building strong families to now chasing self-fulfillment and consumerism. However, satisfaction is never found in accumulating more things; the world is designed to make us want more, but true contentment only comes from God.

This drive for success is ultimately empty. Discontentment is often rooted in covetousness, but we can find peace in knowing that God will never leave us. Our identity is found in Christ, and we must remember to decrease so He may increase. Though Jesus was rich, He became poor for our sake, and He is the ultimate treasure. We gain everything in knowing Christ, and we must invest our hearts and lives in God’s kingdom.
