Looking back at your life, have you struggled with wanting to possess what someone else has?

Quick Review…Looking back at your notes from this Sunday’s sermon, what caught your attention, challenged, or confused you?

Understanding the Truth

1. Read Exodus 20:17. What is the difference between commandments 5-9 and number 10?

2. Read Psalm 73: 1-14, and take note of some Asaph’s negative feelings toward the wicked. Have you ever felt this way?

3. Seeing Asaph’s negative feelings toward the wicked, what do you think is the root of covetousness?

4. What are the two ways to deal with covetousness? Read (Philip. 4:11; 2Cor. 12:10; 1 Tim 6:8-9 and Psalm 73:1,17,21-22)

5. How is Jesus the perfect example of contentment and purity? Read Philip. 2:5-8; Matt. 8:20; Luke 10:21 and 2 Cor 5:21.

Living the Truth

1. Share with each other three reasons you can be content with your life.

2. Share with your group a time you experiences lacking in your life, and how having faith in Christ made a difference.
