b'Gary Thomas, in his book Authentic Faith, tells the story about the time he went with family to Knott\\u2019s Berry Farm:\\nWhen we visited Knott\'s Berry Farm, an amusement park with a frontier theme, there were virtually no lines, and we went easily from major attraction to major attraction, in many cases walking right on. If the kids really enjoyed the ride, they stayed on and rode again.\\nMy then six-year-old daughter Kelsey was having the time of her life. After about three hours, however, I noticed something curious. She jumped off some little cars; she had ridden a train, a log ride, a Ferris wheel, a flying school bus- you name it. Her words, however, revealed a spirit that was getting more hungry, not less: "What\'s next?" she asked, with a slightly desperate edge to her voice. That\'s when I realized there\'s never quite enough excitement to quiet the human heart. We\'ll never have as much excitement as we want. This has been true from the beginning of time.\\nAugustine described it this way, \\u201cOur hearts are restless until we find our rest in Thee.\\u201d We will have a lifelong struggle for contentment with our hearts, a \\u201cWhat\\u2019s next\\u201d heart that keeps longing and is continually tempted to find satisfaction in everything that never satisfies. In Philippians 4:13, we will look at 1) The Extent of Contentment, 2) The Effect of Contentment, and 3) The Power of Contentment.\\nText: Philippians 4:10-13Speaker: Sam ShinDate: 5/19/19'
