371. The Secret of Contentment

🎙️ The Secret of Contentment

What if the peace you’re searching for isn’t found in getting more—but in realizing you already have enough?

In this episode of The Rob Skinner Podcast, Rob Skinner explores one of the most underrated and powerful virtues of the Christian life: contentment. Drawing from 1 Timothy 6:6–8, Rob challenges the cultural narrative that fulfillment comes from accumulation, status, or success—and points instead to the quiet strength of godliness with contentment.

Rob shares a personal story from his early years as a Christian, when owning very little didn’t feel like lack at all—but freedom. With God, purpose, and meaningful relationships, he discovered that true richness has nothing to do with possessions and everything to do with perspective.

This episode will encourage you to slow down, take inventory of what God has already given you, and rediscover joy, peace, and gratitude right where you are.
