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

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.

Here’s the introduction for Being Content God’s Way. I have been praying that God uses the book and accompanying workbook to help people be “rooted and built up in Christ” (Colossians 2:7).
