You Covet and Cannot Obtain So You Fight and Quarrel (James 4:2)

Sunday's sermon turned into a blog post with audio and video:

https://www.scottlapierre.org/you-covet-and-cannot-obtain/

What do we think typically ruins relationships? Gossip? Anger? Lies? Unfortunately, we don’t often think of covetousness. But we should! God blames covetousness for our conflicts: “You desire and do not have, so you murder. You covet and cannot obtain, so you fight and quarrel” (James 4:2). We take it out on others when we don’t get what we want. “Desire and do not have” is synonymous with “covet and cannot obtain,” and “murder” is synonymous with “quarrels and…fights.” God repeats Himself to drive the point home: covetousness causes conflicts.

Achan’s Hidden Sin: How Secret Disobedience Destroys Lives

Achan thought his sin was private — that nobody would know and nobody would get hurt. But in Joshua 7, we see that hidden sin always brings painful consequences.
This message reminds us that unconfessed sin affects not only us, but those around us — our families, churches, and communities. Yet through confession and repentance, there’s always mercy and restoration in Christ.
