Publisher's summary

Feeling peace in the midst of struggles and disappointments is not something that comes naturally to most. As Christians, however, this state of constant contentment is a waiting gift from God that needs only to be accepted and practiced. Puritan pastor Jeremiah Burroughs explains how to lean into God’s will and live in a way that is unafraid to fight temptation, overcome anxieties, and show God’s love to others. While this may seem unattainable to some, Burroughs argues that this is one of the fundamentals of Christianity. He outlines how surrendering to God and learning to follow His path, rather than chasing temporary desires and “perfect” outward circumstances, will bring true and lasting peace.

This series, published by ONE audiobooks, seeks to produce Classic Christian titles read by well known and loved audiobook narrators. ONE takes great care to cast these titles with narrators who will provide an unmatched listening experience for these important works.

Simon Bubb brings his passion to every performance and is considered to be one of the top audiobook narrators in the industry.

Incredible & encouraging truth

This book was a huge encouragement for me & offered so much practical wisdom for living more contently in Christ. As the author states, it’s easier to write teachings about contentment than live it out - it’s a life long practice. It was so good I bought a hard copy to reference, this will be a book I return to again & again.
