Publisher's summary

The counter-cultural move from accumulation to abundance

Why is it so hard to find the contented, satisfied life? What deep hungers drive our purchasing habits, accumulation, and consumer lifestyle?

Satisfied is for those drowning in debt, but also those getting farther and farther ahead financially. It is for those who have forgotten who they are and mistakenly equate their self-worth with their net worth. It is for those who are crippled by comparison. It is for those with full closets and empty souls.

Satisfied provides an inspiring and transformative vision for living a deeply contented life in our consumer-driven culture.

"Jeff Manion's voice is such a wise, clear, helpful voice, and I'm so thankful for the timely and challenging invitation he's issued in these pages. I'm inspired to live more richly with fewer things, and to pursue gratitude and generosity with more intention." (Shauna Niequist, author of Bread and Wine)

Call to Contentment

Great reminder to pursue contentment in a culture that breeds the opposite. Often this message is delivered with a dose of guilt, not this time.

Full of wisdom

I had this book sitting in my library for a year before I finally made time to listen to it. Manion provides a challenging and inspiring message of contentment, joy, and generosity. I encourage couples to read or listen together.

Incredibly boring...

This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?

I am struggling to get through this short book. I feel as if the author dumbs the content down and constantly repeats the same phrases again and again. For the time being, I'm stopped 2.5 hours in because he keeps repeating "enrolling in the school of contentment". Shut up already. Make your point and move on. I wish I could get my credit back for this book.

What didn’t you like about Heath McClure’s performance?

It's not the readers fault. The book is just miserably boring.
