Why is it so hard to be content? In Defeating Discontentment, John MacArthur explores the root of our restlessness and points to the only source of lasting satisfaction—a heart anchored in Christ, not in changing circumstances.

Are you constantly chasing the next thing, hoping it will finally make you happy? What if the problem isn’t your situation but your perspective? Through the truth of Philippians 4 and other key texts, MacArthur reveals that contentment isn’t natural—it’s learned. And it grows as we trust God’s goodness, provision, and sovereignty.

So how do we defeat the grip of discontentment? Can we really find peace when life doesn’t go our way? This convicting yet hope-filled booklet reminds us that true joy doesn’t come from getting what we want—it comes from wanting what God has given.
