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.

🌿 The Madness of Sin and the Wisdom of Walking with God

Sin doesn’t just break lives—it distorts minds.
King Saul’s story shows how rebellion against God led to confusion, jealousy, and despair. But it also reminds us that true wisdom, peace, and clarity are found only when we walk closely with the Lord.
This message challenges us to examine our hearts and choose the wisdom that comes from obedience rather than the madness that flows from sin.

When the Body Fails but the Soul Grows Strong (2 Corinthians 4:16–18)

As our bodies age and weaken, it can be easy to lose heart. But Scripture reminds us that even as our outer selves are wasting away, our inner selves are being renewed day by day.

Learn how we can find strength, perspective, and hope when our physical strength fails — by fixing our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen and eternal.
