• 0:37
  You
• 0:37
  ever
• 0:37
  feel
• 0:38
  like
• 0:38
  you're
• 0:38
  running
• 0:38
  a
• 0:38
  race
• 0:38
  you
• 0:39
  just
• 0:39
  can't
• 0:39
  win?
• 0:40
  This
• 0:40
  pressure
• 0:41
  to
• 0:41
  keep
• 0:41
  up
• 0:41
  with
• 0:41
  what
• 0:42
  everyone
• 0:42
  else
• 0:42
  has,
• 0:43
  it's
• 0:43
  exhausting,
• 0:44
  isn't
• 0:44
  it?
• 0:45
  It
• 0:45
  drains
• 0:46
  your
• 0:46
  joy,
• 0:46
  doesn't
• 0:46
  it?
• 0:47
  If
• 0:47
  we're
• 0:48
  not
• 0:48
  careful,
• 0:48
  it
• 0:49
  empties
• 0:49
  our
• 0:49
  wallets
• 0:49
  as
• 0:50
  well.
• 0:51
  Let
• 0:51
  me
• 0:51
  ask
• 0:51
  you
• 0:51
  this.
• 0:52
  What
• 0:52
  if
• 0:53
  we
• 0:53
  could
• 0:53
  step
• 0:53
  off
• 0:53
  that
• 0:53
  treadmill
• 0:54
  for
• 0:54
  good?
• 0:55
  Today
• 0:55
  is
• 0:55
  all
• 0:56
  about
• 0:56
  freedom.
• 0:56
  Freedom
• 0:57
  from
• 0:57
  comparison.
• 0:58
  And
• 0:58
  today
• 0:59
  is
• 0:59
  closer
• 0:59
  than
• 0:59
  you
• 1:00
  might
• 1:00
  think.
• 1:00
  That's
• 1:00
  what
• 1:00
  I'll
• 1:01
  talk
• 1:01
  about
• 1:01
  on

  I

  am

  more

  financially

  confident

  Christian.
• 1:25
  And
• 1:26
  we're
• 1:26
  in
• 1:26
  our
• 1:26
  series
• 1:27
  trying
• 1:28
  to
• 1:28
  break
• 1:28
  those
• 1:29
  financial
• 1:30
  chains.
• 1:31
  And
• 1:31
  yesterday
• 1:31
  we
• 1:31
  had
• 1:32
  a
• 1:32
  great
• 1:32
  show
• 1:32
  about
• 1:32
  the
• 1:32
  financial
• 1:33
  strain
• 1:33
  of
• 1:33
  kids
• 1:34
  activities.
• 1:34
  I'm
• 1:34
  going
• 1:34
  to
• 1:35
  encourage.
• 1:35
  If
• 1:35
  you
• 1:35
  missed
• 1:35
  it,
• 1:36
  go
• 1:36
  and
• 1:36
  check
• 1:36
  it
• 1:36
  out.
• 1:36
  All
• 1:37
  of
• 1:37
  our
• 1:37
  shows

  are@financiallyconfidentchristian.com
• 1:40
  but
• 1:41
  today
• 1:41
  we're
• 1:42
  going
• 1:42
  to
• 1:42
  navigate
• 1:43
  money
• 1:43
  and
• 1:43
  social
• 1:44
  pressure
• 1:44
  is
• 1:45
  all
• 1:45
  around
• 1:45
  us.
• 1:46
  That
• 1:46
  social
• 1:47
  pressure
• 1:47
  is
• 1:48
  constantly
• 1:49
  bombarding
• 1:49
  us
• 1:50
  from
• 1:50
  social
• 1:50
  media.
• 1:50
  We'll
• 1:51
  talk
• 1:51
  a
• 1:51
  lot
• 1:51
  about
• 1:51
  that
• 1:51
  tomorrow.
• 1:52
  But
• 1:52
  there's
• 1:53
  this
• 1:53
  constant
• 1:53
  urge
• 1:54
  to
• 1:54
  keep
• 1:54
  up.
• 1:54
  You're
• 1:55
  probably
• 1:55
  feeling
• 1:55
  it
• 1:55
  right
• 1:55
  now.
• 1:56
  As
• 1:56
  I
• 1:57
  sat
• 1:57
  down
• 1:57
  to
• 1:57
  record
• 1:58
  today,
• 1:58
  my
• 1:58
  phone's
• 1:59
  going
• 1:59
  off
• 1:59
  with
• 2:00
  emails
• 2:00
  and
• 2:01
  social
• 2:01
  media
• 2:01
  messages
• 2:03
  and
• 2:03
  it's
• 2:03
  constant.
• 2:04
  We
• 2:04
  scroll
• 2:04
  through
• 2:04
  social
• 2:05
  media,
• 2:05
  we
• 2:05
  see
• 2:06
  cars,
• 2:06
  we
• 2:06
  see
• 2:07
  kitchens,
• 2:07
  we
• 2:07
  see
• 2:08
  vacations.
• 2:08
  It's
• 2:09
  all
• 2:09
  around
• 2:09
  us.
• 2:10
  And
• 2:11
  if
• 2:11
  we're
• 2:11
  not
• 2:11
  careful,
• 2:12
  suddenly
• 2:13
  everything
• 2:13
  we
• 2:13
  have
• 2:14
  starts
• 2:14
  to
• 2:14
  feel
• 2:14
  small,
• 2:15
  doesn't
• 2:15
  it?
• 2:16
  And
• 2:16
  there's
• 2:16
  this
• 2:17
  natural
• 2:17
  push
• 2:17
  to
• 2:17
  upgrade,
• 2:18
  to
• 2:18
  spend
• 2:19
  more
• 2:19
  too.
• 2:19
  Hey,
• 2:19
  guess
• 2:20
  what?
• 2:20
  It's
• 2:20
  really
• 2:20
  called
• 2:21
  catching
• 2:21
  up
• 2:21
  with
• 2:21
  everybody
• 2:22
  else.
• 2:23
  But
• 2:23
  here's
• 2:23
  the
• 2:24
  problem.
• 2:24
  The
• 2:25
  problem
• 2:25
  is
• 2:25
  all
• 2:25
  of
• 2:26
  those
• 2:26
  things,
• 2:26
  they're
• 2:27
  just
• 2:27
  moving
• 2:27
  targets.
• 2:29
  And
• 2:29
  the
• 2:29
  result
• 2:29
  of
• 2:30
  those
• 2:30
  moving
• 2:30
  targets,
• 2:31
  we
• 2:31
  lose
• 2:32
  our
• 2:32
  joy.
• 2:32
  Our
• 2:32
  joy
• 2:32
  is
• 2:33
  completely
• 2:33
  stolen.
• 2:34
  Our
• 2:34
  budgets
• 2:35
  are
• 2:35
  wrecked.
• 2:36
  We
• 2:36
  just
• 2:37
  feel
• 2:37
  this
• 2:37
  constant
• 2:38
  state
• 2:38
  of
• 2:38
  not
• 2:38
  being
• 2:39
  enough.
• 2:40
  Here's
• 2:41
  the
• 2:41
  thing
• 2:41
  I
• 2:41
  want
• 2:41
  you
• 2:41
  to
• 2:41
  understand
• 2:41
  from
• 2:42
  the
• 2:42
  start
• 2:42
  today
• 2:42
  and
• 2:42
  I
• 2:43
  was
• 2:43
  thinking
• 2:43
  about
• 2:43
  when
• 2:43
  I
• 2:43
  was
• 2:44
  preparing
• 2:44
  for
• 2:44
  today's
• 2:45
  show.
• 2:45
  What
• 2:45
  does
• 2:46
  culture
• 2:46
  really
• 2:47
  say?
• 2:47
  The
• 2:48
  truth
• 2:48
  is
• 2:48
  our
• 2:48
  culture.
• 2:49
  And
• 2:49
  for
• 2:49
  what
• 2:49
  it's
• 2:49
  worth,
• 2:50
  it's
• 2:50
  a
• 2:50
  sad
• 2:51
  thing.
• 2:51
  But
• 2:51
  our
• 2:51
  culture
• 2:52
  thrives
• 2:52
  on
• 2:52
  comparison.
• 2:54
  Everything
• 2:54
  around
• 2:55
  us
• 2:55
  is
• 2:55
  designed
• 2:55
  to
• 2:56
  make
• 2:56
  us
• 2:56
  feel.
• 2:56
  Feel
• 2:56
  discontented.
• 2:58
  The
• 2:58
  reason
• 2:58
  it
• 2:58
  does
• 2:58
  that
• 2:59
  is
• 2:59
  it
• 2:59
  wants
• 2:59
  us
• 2:59
  to
• 2:59
  spend
• 3:00
  more.
• 3:00
  It
• 3:01
  wants
• 3:01
  us
• 3:01
  to
• 3:01
  go
• 3:02
  get
• 3:02
  those
• 3:02
  things
• 3:02
  that
• 3:03
  everyone
• 3:03
  Else
• 3:03
  has
• 3:04
  that
• 3:04
  comparison
• 3:04
  trap.
• 3:05
  I've
• 3:05
  talked
• 3:05
  about
• 3:05
  that
• 3:05
  on
• 3:05
  the
• 3:06
  show
• 3:06
  many
• 3:06
  times,
• 3:08
  but
• 3:08
  this
• 3:08
  shows
• 3:08
  about
• 3:09
  something
• 3:09
  a
• 3:09
  little
• 3:10
  bit
• 3:10
  bigger
• 3:10
  than
• 3:10
  that.
• 3:11
  And
• 3:11
  see,
• 3:12
  God's
• 3:12
  word
• 3:12
  teaches
• 3:13
  us
• 3:13
  something
• 3:13
  completely
• 3:14
  opposite
• 3:14
  of
• 3:15
  that.
• 3:15
  God's
• 3:16
  word
• 3:16
  teaches
• 3:16
  us
• 3:16
  not
• 3:17
  to
• 3:17
  covet.
• 3:17
  So
• 3:18
  let's
• 3:18
  get
• 3:18
  right
• 3:19
  into
• 3:19
  the
• 3:19
  word
• 3:20
  of
• 3:20
  God
• 3:20
  today
• 3:20
  to
• 3:21
  help
• 3:21
  bolster
• 3:22
  us
• 3:22
  and
• 3:22
  help
• 3:22
  us
• 3:23
  find
• 3:23
  that
• 3:23
  freedom
• 3:23
  I
• 3:24
  talked
• 3:24
  about
• 3:24
  at
• 3:24
  the
• 3:24
  beginning
• 3:24
  of
• 3:24
  this
• 3:25
  show.
• 3:25
  And
• 3:25
  we're
• 3:25
  going
• 3:26
  to
• 3:26
  go
• 3:26
  right
• 3:26
  to
• 3:26
  the
• 3:26
  book
• 3:26
  of
• 3:26
  Exodus.
• 3:27
  This
• 3:27
  is
• 3:27
  from
• 3:28
  Exodus
• 3:29
  21:17.
• 3:30
  It
• 3:30
  says
• 3:30
  this.
• 3:31
  Now,
• 3:31
  I'm
• 3:31
  going
• 3:31
  to
• 3:31
  tell
• 3:31
  you
• 3:31
  right?
• 3:32
  This
• 3:32
  is
• 3:32
  quite
• 3:32
  direct,
• 3:33
  but
• 3:33
  I
• 3:33
  thought
• 3:33
  this
• 3:33
  was
• 3:34
  perfect
• 3:34
  for
• 3:34
  today's
• 3:34
  show.
• 3:35
  Again,
• 3:35
  this
• 3:35
  is
• 3:36
  Exodus
• 3:36
  20:17.
• 3:38
  You
• 3:38
  shall
• 3:38
  not
• 3:39
  covet
• 3:39
  your
• 3:39
  neighbor's
• 3:40
  house.
• 3:41
  You
• 3:41
  shall
• 3:41
  not
• 3:41
  covet
• 3:42
  your
• 3:42
  neighbor's
• 3:42
  wife
• 3:42
  or
• 3:43
  his
• 3:43
  male
• 3:43
  or
• 3:43
  female
• 3:44
  servant
• 3:44
  or
• 3:44
  his
• 3:45
  ox
• 3:45
  or
• 3:45
  donkey
• 3:46
  or
• 3:46
  anything
• 3:47
  that
• 3:47
  belongs
• 3:47
  to
• 3:47
  your
• 3:48
  neighbor.
• 3:48
  Now,
• 3:48
  listen,
• 3:49
  in
• 3:49
  the
• 3:49
  culture
• 3:49
  we're
• 3:49
  in
• 3:50
  today,
• 3:50
  I
• 3:50
  don't
• 3:50
  know
• 3:51
  too
• 3:51
  many
• 3:51
  people
• 3:51
  that
• 3:51
  have
• 3:51
  oxes
• 3:52
  or
• 3:52
  donkeys.
• 3:52
  I
• 3:53
  actually
• 3:53
  live
• 3:53
  on
• 3:53
  a
• 3:53
  farm.
• 3:53
  I've
• 3:53
  got
• 3:54
  some
• 3:54
  Black
• 3:54
  Angus
• 3:55
  cows
• 3:55
  and
• 3:55
  a
• 3:55
  lady
• 3:55
  across
• 3:56
  the
• 3:56
  street
• 3:56
  from
• 3:56
  me,
• 3:56
  pretty
• 3:57
  sure
• 3:57
  she's
• 3:57
  got
• 3:57
  a
• 3:57
  donkey
• 3:58
  over
• 3:58
  there.
• 3:59
  But
• 3:59
  for
• 3:59
  most
• 3:59
  people
• 4:00
  right
• 4:00
  now,
• 4:00
  we
• 4:00
  don't
• 4:01
  have
• 4:01
  oxes
• 4:01
  or
• 4:01
  donkeys.
• 4:03
  But
• 4:03
  it's
• 4:03
  saying
• 4:03
  something
• 4:04
  much
• 4:04
  deeper
• 4:04
  than
• 4:04
  that,
• 4:05
  isn't
• 4:05
  it?
• 4:06
  Not
• 4:06
  to
• 4:06
  covet
• 4:07
  your
• 4:07
  neighbor's
• 4:07
  house,
• 4:08
  not
• 4:09
  to
• 4:09
  constantly
• 4:09
  compare
• 4:10
  yourself
• 4:10
  to
• 4:11
  that
• 4:11
  or
• 4:11
  compare
• 4:12
  yourself
• 4:12
  to
• 4:12
  the
• 4:12
  neighbor's
• 4:13
  wife
• 4:13
  or
• 4:13
  their
• 4:14
  servants
• 4:14
  or
• 4:14
  or
• 4:15
  anything
• 4:15
  else
• 4:15
  that
• 4:15
  belongs
• 4:16
  to
• 4:16
  them.
• 4:17
  That's
• 4:17
  really
• 4:17
  what
• 4:18
  we're
• 4:18
  talking
• 4:18
  about.
• 4:18
  The
• 4:19
  Bible
• 4:19
  in
• 4:19
  this
• 4:20
  chapter
• 4:20
  of
• 4:20
  Exodus
• 4:21
  is
• 4:22
  really
• 4:22
  telling
• 4:22
  us
• 4:22
  to
• 4:23
  stop
• 4:23
  living
• 4:24
  in
• 4:24
  that
• 4:24
  comparison
• 4:25
  trap.
• 4:26
  Well,
• 4:26
  let's
• 4:26
  look
• 4:27
  at
• 4:27
  the
• 4:27
  book
• 4:27
  of
• 4:27
  Philippians,
• 4:28
  chapter
• 4:28
  4,
• 4:28
  verses
• 4:29
  11
• 4:29
  to
• 4:29
  13.
• 4:30
  This
• 4:30
  is
• 4:31
  a
• 4:31
  great
• 4:31
  way
• 4:32
  to
• 4:32
  ground
• 4:32
  yourself
• 4:33
  and
• 4:33
  finally
• 4:33
  find
• 4:34
  that
• 4:34
  freedom
• 4:34
  that
• 4:34
  we're
• 4:34
  talking
• 4:35
  about
• 4:35
  today.
• 4:35
  And
• 4:35
  this
• 4:35
  is
• 4:36
  from
• 4:36
  Philippians,
• 4:36
  chapter
• 4:37
  4,
• 4:37
  11,
• 4:38
  13.
• 4:38
  Then
• 4:39
  this
• 4:39
  is
• 4:39
  Paul
• 4:39
  speaking
• 4:39
  right
• 4:40
  here.
• 4:40
  It
• 4:40
  says,
• 4:40
  I'm
• 4:40
  not
• 4:40
  saying
• 4:41
  this
• 4:41
  because
• 4:41
  I'm
• 4:42
  in
• 4:42
  need,
• 4:43
  for
• 4:43
  I've
• 4:43
  learned
• 4:44
  to
• 4:44
  be
• 4:44
  content
• 4:44
  whatever
• 4:45
  the
• 4:45
  circumstances.
• 4:46
  I
• 4:47
  know
• 4:47
  what
• 4:47
  it
• 4:47
  is
• 4:47
  to
• 4:47
  be
• 4:47
  in
• 4:48
  need,
• 4:48
  and
• 4:49
  I
• 4:49
  know
• 4:49
  what
• 4:49
  it
• 4:49
  is
• 4:49
  to
• 4:49
  have
• 4:49
  plenty.
• 4:50
  I've
• 4:51
  learned
• 4:51
  the
• 4:51
  secret
• 4:51
  of
• 4:52
  being
• 4:52
  content
• 4:52
  in
• 4:53
  any
• 4:53
  and
• 4:53
  every
• 4:53
  situation,
• 4:54
  whether
• 4:55
  fed
• 4:55
  or
• 4:55
  hungry,
• 4:56
  whether
• 4:56
  living
• 4:57
  in
• 4:57
  plenty
• 4:57
  or
• 4:57
  in
• 4:58
  want.
• 4:58
  And
• 4:59
  this
• 4:59
  is
• 4:59
  the
• 4:59
  most
• 4:59
  beautiful
• 5:00
  piece
• 5:00
  of
• 5:00
  scripture.
• 5:01
  I
• 5:01
  believe
• 5:01
  in
• 5:01
  the
• 5:01
  Bible,
• 5:02
  I
• 5:02
  can
• 5:02
  do
• 5:03
  all
• 5:03
  things
• 5:03
  through
• 5:04
  him
• 5:04
  who
• 5:04
  strengthens
• 5:05
  me.
• 5:06
  What
• 5:06
  Paul
• 5:07
  is
• 5:07
  really
• 5:07
  talking
• 5:07
  about
• 5:08
  is
• 5:08
  how
• 5:08
  we
• 5:08
  can
• 5:09
  break
• 5:09
  that
• 5:09
  comparison
• 5:10
  trap.
• 5:10
  Because
• 5:10
  what
• 5:10
  is
• 5:10
  he
• 5:11
  saying?
• 5:11
  He
• 5:11
  knows
• 5:12
  what
• 5:12
  it's
• 5:12
  like
• 5:12
  to
• 5:12
  be
• 5:12
  in
• 5:12
  need.
• 5:13
  He
• 5:13
  knows
• 5:13
  what
• 5:14
  it's
• 5:14
  like
• 5:14
  to
• 5:14
  have
• 5:14
  A
• 5:14
  lot.
• 5:15
  And
• 5:16
  what's
• 5:16
  the
• 5:16
  big
• 5:16
  secret?
• 5:16
  What
• 5:17
  is
• 5:17
  he
• 5:17
  saying
• 5:17
  to
• 5:17
  us
• 5:17
  in
• 5:18
  every
• 5:18
  situation?
• 5:18
  Whether
• 5:19
  he's
• 5:19
  hungry
• 5:19
  or
• 5:20
  whether
• 5:20
  he's
• 5:20
  well
• 5:20
  fed,
• 5:21
  whether
• 5:21
  he's
• 5:21
  got
• 5:22
  plenty
• 5:22
  or
• 5:22
  he
• 5:23
  is
• 5:23
  in
• 5:23
  need?
• 5:23
  What
• 5:23
  is
• 5:23
  he
• 5:24
  really
• 5:24
  saying?
• 5:25
  Look
• 5:25
  to
• 5:26
  God.
• 5:27
  See,
• 5:27
  that's
• 5:28
  the
• 5:28
  problem
• 5:28
  when
• 5:28
  we
• 5:28
  covet.
• 5:29
  A
• 5:29
  lot
• 5:29
  of
• 5:29
  people
• 5:29
  say,
• 5:29
  that's
• 5:30
  a
• 5:30
  fancy
• 5:30
  word,
• 5:30
  Ralph.
• 5:31
  Coveting.
• 5:31
  A
• 5:31
  lot
• 5:31
  of
• 5:31
  people
• 5:31
  say,
• 5:32
  what
• 5:32
  does
• 5:32
  that
• 5:32
  mean?
• 5:33
  That
• 5:33
  is
• 5:34
  truly
• 5:34
  the
• 5:34
  root
• 5:35
  of
• 5:35
  this
• 5:35
  comparison,
• 5:37
  comparing
• 5:37
  ourselves
• 5:38
  to
• 5:38
  others.
• 5:39
  But
• 5:39
  here's
• 5:40
  the
• 5:40
  thing,
• 5:40
  and
• 5:40
  the
• 5:40
  problem
• 5:40
  is
• 5:41
  we're
• 5:41
  comparing
• 5:41
  ourselves
• 5:42
  to
• 5:42
  others
• 5:42
  because
• 5:42
  we
• 5:43
  feel
• 5:43
  inadequate.
• 5:44
  You
• 5:44
  might
• 5:44
  be
• 5:45
  listening
• 5:45
  to
• 5:45
  this
• 5:45
  right
• 5:45
  now.
• 5:45
  You're
• 5:46
  like,
• 5:46
  ralph,
• 5:46
  man,
• 5:46
  I
• 5:47
  do
• 5:47
  feel
• 5:47
  inadequate
• 5:48
  some
• 5:48
  days.
• 5:49
  Well,
• 5:49
  here's
• 5:50
  the
• 5:50
  freedom
• 5:50
  piece,
• 5:50
  the
• 5:51
  first
• 5:51
  piece
• 5:51
  of
• 5:51
  your
• 5:51
  freedom
• 5:52
  journey.
• 5:53
  Your
• 5:53
  true
• 5:53
  strength
• 5:54
  doesn't
• 5:54
  come
• 5:55
  from
• 5:55
  what
• 5:55
  you
• 5:55
  have.
• 5:56
  It
• 5:56
  doesn't
• 5:56
  come
• 5:56
  from
• 5:57
  what's
• 5:57
  sitting
• 5:57
  in
• 5:57
  the
• 5:57
  driveway.
• 5:58
  It
• 5:58
  doesn't
• 5:59
  come
• 5:59
  from
• 5:59
  those
• 5:59
  Instagram
• 6:00
  vacation
• 6:00
  pictures.
• 6:01
  It
• 6:01
  doesn't
• 6:02
  come
• 6:02
  from
• 6:02
  how
• 6:03
  much
• 6:03
  money's
• 6:03
  in
• 6:03
  your
• 6:03
  bank
• 6:04
  account
• 6:04
  or
• 6:04
  in
• 6:04
  your
• 6:04
  401k.
• 6:06
  Your
• 6:06
  true
• 6:06
  strength
• 6:07
  comes
• 6:07
  from
• 6:07
  Christ.
• 6:08
  It
• 6:09
  doesn't
• 6:09
  come
• 6:09
  from
• 6:09
  status.
• 6:10
  That's
• 6:10
  the
• 6:10
  first
• 6:11
  thing
• 6:11
  we
• 6:11
  need
• 6:11
  to
• 6:11
  understand.
• 6:12
  If
• 6:12
  you
• 6:12
  want
• 6:12
  to
• 6:12
  break
• 6:13
  free
• 6:13
  and
• 6:14
  start
• 6:14
  to
• 6:14
  break
• 6:14
  these
• 6:15
  chains
• 6:15
  of
• 6:15
  financial
• 6:16
  anxiety,
• 6:17
  specifically
• 6:18
  today,
• 6:18
  as
• 6:18
  we're
• 6:19
  talking
• 6:19
  about
• 6:19
  this
• 6:19
  comparison
• 6:20
  trap,
• 6:20
  you
• 6:21
  have
• 6:21
  to
• 6:21
  understand
• 6:22
  your
• 6:22
  true
• 6:22
  strength
• 6:23
  doesn't
• 6:23
  come
• 6:24
  from
• 6:24
  your
• 6:24
  stuff.
• 6:24
  I
• 6:25
  want
• 6:25
  you
• 6:25
  to
• 6:25
  hear
• 6:25
  that
• 6:25
  today.
• 6:26
  It
• 6:26
  doesn't
• 6:26
  come
• 6:26
  from
• 6:26
  your
• 6:27
  stuff.
• 6:27
  It
• 6:27
  comes
• 6:28
  from
• 6:28
  Christ,
• 6:29
  not
• 6:29
  your
• 6:29
  status.
• 6:31
  And
• 6:31
  it's
• 6:31
  so
• 6:31
  easy.
• 6:32
  I
• 6:32
  found
• 6:32
  myself
• 6:33
  in
• 6:33
  this
• 6:33
  same
• 6:33
  situation.
• 6:34
  I'll
• 6:34
  be
• 6:34
  sitting
• 6:35
  there
• 6:35
  just
• 6:35
  casually
• 6:36
  scrolling
• 6:36
  through
• 6:36
  Facebook.
• 6:37
  You
• 6:37
  may
• 6:38
  be
• 6:38
  doing
• 6:38
  the
• 6:38
  same
• 6:38
  thing.
• 6:38
  You
• 6:39
  see
• 6:39
  somebody's
• 6:39
  vacation
• 6:40
  post
• 6:40
  and
• 6:40
  you're
• 6:40
  feeling,
• 6:41
  oh
• 6:41
  man,
• 6:41
  I
• 6:41
  wish
• 6:41
  I
• 6:41
  could
• 6:42
  do
• 6:42
  that.
• 6:42
  They're
• 6:43
  out
• 6:43
  there
• 6:43
  having
• 6:43
  such
• 6:44
  a
• 6:44
  great
• 6:44
  time
• 6:44
  on
• 6:45
  the
• 6:45
  water
• 6:45
  skis
• 6:45
  or
• 6:46
  parasailing
• 6:47
  on
• 6:47
  some
• 6:47
  island.
• 6:47
  You're
• 6:48
  just
• 6:48
  having
• 6:48
  a
• 6:48
  great
• 6:49
  time
• 6:49
  with
• 6:49
  life.
• 6:50
  That's
• 6:51
  that
• 6:51
  comparison
• 6:51
  trap.
• 6:53
  Maybe
• 6:53
  you
• 6:53
  pull
• 6:53
  up,
• 6:54
  you
• 6:54
  know,
• 6:54
  at
• 6:54
  your
• 6:54
  house
• 6:55
  and
• 6:55
  next
• 6:55
  door
• 6:55
  your
• 6:55
  neighbor
• 6:56
  just
• 6:56
  got
• 6:56
  a
• 6:56
  brand
• 6:56
  new
• 6:56
  Corvette.
• 6:58
  You're
• 6:58
  thinking,
• 6:58
  man,
• 6:58
  I
• 6:59
  would
• 6:59
  love
• 6:59
  to
• 6:59
  have
• 6:59
  a
• 6:59
  Corvette.
• 7:00
  I
• 7:00
  get
• 7:00
  a
• 7:00
  sold
• 7:00
  jalopy
• 7:01
  in
• 7:01
  my
• 7:01
  driveway
• 7:02
  and
• 7:03
  it
• 7:03
  sparks
• 7:03
  that
• 7:03
  urge
• 7:04
  to
• 7:04
  upgrade,
• 7:04
  to
• 7:05
  compare
• 7:05
  yourself
• 7:05
  to
• 7:06
  that
• 7:06
  person.
• 7:07
  But
• 7:07
  the
• 7:07
  lesson
• 7:08
  that
• 7:08
  I
• 7:08
  learned,
• 7:08
  and
• 7:08
  listen,
• 7:09
  I
• 7:09
  was
• 7:09
  right
• 7:09
  there.
• 7:09
  I
• 7:09
  was
• 7:10
  living
• 7:10
  one
• 7:10
  time,
• 7:11
  neighbor
• 7:11
  went
• 7:11
  out
• 7:11
  and
• 7:11
  bought
• 7:11
  this
• 7:12
  brand
• 7:12
  new
• 7:12
  sports
• 7:13
  car.
• 7:13
  I
• 7:13
  said,
• 7:13
  I
• 7:13
  gotta
• 7:13
  have
• 7:13
  a
• 7:14
  sports
• 7:14
  car.
• 7:15
  I
• 7:15
  ran
• 7:15
  to
• 7:16
  the
• 7:16
  store,
• 7:16
  my
• 7:16
  wife
• 7:16
  says,
• 7:17
  you're
• 7:17
  crazy,
• 7:17
  Ralph.
• 7:17
  But
• 7:17
  I
• 7:18
  went
• 7:18
  and
• 7:18
  bought
• 7:18
  a
• 7:18
  new
• 7:19
  Corvette.
• 7:20
  And
• 7:20
  what
• 7:20
  did
• 7:20
  it
• 7:21
  do?
• 7:21
  That
• 7:21
  comparison
• 7:21
  led
• 7:22
  me
• 7:22
  to
• 7:22
  debt.
• 7:23
  I
• 7:23
  really
• 7:23
  paid
• 7:24
  too
• 7:24
  much
• 7:24
  for
• 7:24
  a
• 7:24
  car.
• 7:25
  I
• 7:25
  didn't
• 7:25
  even
• 7:25
  want
• 7:25
  to
• 7:25
  drive
• 7:26
  it.
• 7:26
  But
• 7:27
  then
• 7:27
  when
• 7:27
  I
• 7:27
  finally
• 7:28
  started
• 7:28
  thinking
• 7:28
  about
• 7:29
  how
• 7:29
  do
• 7:29
  I
• 7:29
  break
• 7:29
  free
• 7:30
  of
• 7:30
  this,
• 7:30
  I
• 7:30
  needed
• 7:30
  to
• 7:31
  learn
• 7:31
  contentment.
• 7:32
  So
• 7:33
  that's
• 7:33
  my
• 7:33
  big
• 7:33
  takeaway
• 7:34
  from
• 7:34
  today.
• 7:34
  Your
• 7:34
  action
• 7:35
  item
• 7:35
  for
• 7:35
  today
• 7:36
  is
• 7:36
  to
• 7:36
  learn
• 7:36
  how
• 7:37
  to
• 7:37
  step
• 7:37
  off
• 7:37
  that
• 7:37
  treadmill.
• 7:38
  And
• 7:39
  the
• 7:39
  way
• 7:39
  you
• 7:39
  do
• 7:39
  that,
• 7:39
  and
• 7:40
  this
• 7:40
  is,
• 7:40
  there's
• 7:40
  no
• 7:40
  secret
• 7:41
  sauce
• 7:41
  to
• 7:41
  this.
• 7:42
  It's
• 7:42
  really
• 7:42
  this
• 7:42
  simple.
• 7:43
  It's
• 7:44
  time
• 7:44
  to
• 7:44
  practice
• 7:44
  what
• 7:45
  I'm
• 7:45
  going
• 7:45
  to
• 7:45
  call
• 7:45
  radical
• 7:46
  contentment.
• 7:47
  Now
• 7:48
  it
• 7:48
  is
• 7:48
  radical
• 7:48
  because
• 7:48
  the
• 7:49
  world,
• 7:49
  this
• 7:49
  is
• 7:49
  completely
• 7:50
  against
• 7:50
  what
• 7:50
  the
• 7:51
  world
• 7:51
  says.
• 7:51
  I,
• 7:51
  I
• 7:51
  do
• 7:52
  a
• 7:52
  weekly
• 7:52
  show,
• 7:52
  it's
• 7:53
  called
• 7:53
  Truth
• 7:53
  Unveiled
• 7:54
  with
• 7:54
  Ralph.
• 7:54
  And
• 7:54
  I
• 7:54
  did
• 7:54
  a
• 7:55
  show
• 7:55
  a
• 7:55
  couple
• 7:55
  weeks
• 7:55
  ago
• 7:56
  about
• 7:56
  finding
• 7:57
  your
• 7:57
  true
• 7:57
  value.
• 7:57
  I
• 7:58
  encourage
• 7:58
  you
• 7:58
  to
• 7:58
  check
• 7:58
  that
• 7:58
  out.
• 7:59
  You
• 7:59
  can
• 7:59
  see
• 7:59
  that
• 7:59
  at
• 8:00
  truth
• 8:00
  unveiled
• 8:00
  with
• 8:00
  Ralph.com
• 8:01
  and
• 8:01
  I'll
• 8:01
  put
• 8:01
  that
• 8:01
  in
• 8:02
  the
• 8:02
  show
• 8:02
  notes.
• 8:03
  But
• 8:03
  we
• 8:03
  need
• 8:04
  to
• 8:04
  break
• 8:04
  free
• 8:04
  of
• 8:05
  this.
• 8:05
  We
• 8:05
  need
• 8:05
  to
• 8:05
  get
• 8:05
  off
• 8:05
  that
• 8:06
  treadmill.
• 8:06
  And
• 8:06
  the
• 8:07
  best
• 8:07
  way
• 8:07
  to
• 8:07
  do
• 8:07
  that
• 8:08
  is
• 8:08
  to
• 8:08
  practice
• 8:09
  radical
• 8:09
  contentment.
• 8:10
  And
• 8:11
  here's
• 8:11
  something
• 8:11
  that's
• 8:11
  really
• 8:12
  countercultural.
• 8:13
  Think
• 8:13
  about
• 8:13
  celebrating
• 8:14
  others
• 8:14
  blessings
• 8:15
  without
• 8:16
  turning
• 8:16
  them
• 8:16
  into
• 8:16
  your
• 8:17
  burden.
• 8:17
  Because
• 8:17
  when
• 8:17
  we
• 8:17
  see
• 8:18
  someone
• 8:18
  else's
• 8:18
  stuff
• 8:19
  becomes
• 8:20
  a
• 8:20
  burden
• 8:20
  to
• 8:20
  us.
• 8:20
  Well,
• 8:20
  we
• 8:21
  got
• 8:21
  to
• 8:21
  have
• 8:21
  that,
• 8:22
  we
• 8:22
  got
• 8:23
  to
• 8:23
  guard
• 8:23
  our
• 8:23
  heart
• 8:24
  against
• 8:24
  triggers.
• 8:25
  Now
• 8:25
  you
• 8:25
  might
• 8:25
  be
• 8:25
  saying
• 8:25
  around,
• 8:25
  okay,
• 8:26
  that
• 8:26
  sounds
• 8:26
  great
• 8:26
  dude,
• 8:27
  but
• 8:27
  how
• 8:27
  do
• 8:27
  we
• 8:27
  make
• 8:28
  that
• 8:28
  happen?
• 8:29
  Well,
• 8:29
  here's
• 8:29
  your
• 8:29
  action
• 8:30
  steps
• 8:30
  for
• 8:30
  today.
• 8:30
  First
• 8:31
  thing
• 8:31
  you've
• 8:31
  got
• 8:31
  to
• 8:31
  do,
• 8:31
  and
• 8:32
  I've
• 8:32
  talked
• 8:32
  about
• 8:32
  this
• 8:32
  on
• 8:32
  the
• 8:32
  show
• 8:33
  before,
• 8:33
  you've
• 8:34
  got
• 8:34
  to
• 8:34
  really
• 8:34
  sit
• 8:35
  down
• 8:35
  and
• 8:36
  have
• 8:36
  a
• 8:36
  heart
• 8:36
  to
• 8:36
  heart
• 8:36
  discussion
• 8:37
  with
• 8:37
  yourself.
• 8:38
  Talk
• 8:38
  to
• 8:38
  yourself,
• 8:39
  but
• 8:39
  identify
• 8:40
  those
• 8:40
  triggers.
• 8:41
  What
• 8:42
  triggers?
• 8:42
  These
• 8:42
  feelings
• 8:43
  of
• 8:43
  comparison,
• 8:44
  what
• 8:44
  triggers?
• 8:44
  These
• 8:45
  feelings
• 8:45
  of
• 8:45
  I
• 8:45
  don't
• 8:46
  have
• 8:46
  enough.
• 8:46
  You
• 8:46
  got
• 8:46
  to
• 8:47
  think
• 8:47
  about
• 8:47
  unfollowing
• 8:48
  those
• 8:48
  accounts.
• 8:48
  If
• 8:48
  you're
• 8:49
  looking
• 8:49
  at
• 8:49
  social
• 8:49
  media
• 8:50
  and
• 8:50
  these
• 8:50
  things
• 8:51
  are
• 8:51
  triggering
• 8:51
  you,
• 8:52
  stop
• 8:52
  looking
• 8:53
  at
• 8:53
  them,
• 8:53
  limit
• 8:53
  your
• 8:54
  exposure
• 8:54
  to
• 8:54
  them
• 8:55
  because
• 8:56
  those
• 8:56
  are
• 8:56
  the
• 8:56
  things
• 8:56
  going
• 8:56
  to
• 8:57
  keep
• 8:57
  you
• 8:57
  mired
• 8:57
  on
• 8:58
  that
• 8:58
  treadmill
• 8:58
  of
• 8:59
  just
• 8:59
  scrolling.
• 8:59
  Think
• 8:59
  about
• 9:00
  it
• 9:00
  like
• 9:00
  this.
• 9:00
  Think
• 9:00
  about
• 9:00
  the
• 9:01
  analogy,
• 9:01
  the
• 9:01
  visual
• 9:02
  picture
• 9:02
  here.
• 9:02
  You're
• 9:03
  scrolling
• 9:03
  through
• 9:03
  social
• 9:03
  media
• 9:04
  and
• 9:04
  all
• 9:04
  it's
• 9:04
  doing
• 9:04
  is
• 9:04
  making
• 9:05
  you
• 9:05
  feel
• 9:05
  bad
• 9:05
  about
• 9:05
  yourself.
• 9:06
  And
• 9:06
  the
• 9:06
  truth
• 9:07
  is
• 9:07
  this,
• 9:07
  social
• 9:07
  media
• 9:07
  is
• 9:08
  designed
• 9:08
  to
• 9:08
  do
• 9:08
  that.
• 9:09
  Social
• 9:09
  media
• 9:10
  is
• 9:10
  designed
• 9:11
  to
• 9:11
  make
• 9:11
  you
• 9:11
  feel
• 9:11
  bad
• 9:12
  about
• 9:12
  yourself.
• 9:12
  Why?
• 9:13
  So
• 9:13
  that
• 9:13
  you
• 9:14
  can
• 9:14
  go
• 9:14
  buy
• 9:14
  stuff,
• 9:15
  you
• 9:15
  spend
• 9:16
  money
• 9:16
  with
• 9:16
  the
• 9:17
  advertisers,
• 9:17
  what
• 9:17
  they're
• 9:17
  doing
• 9:18
  on
• 9:18
  social
• 9:18
  media
• 9:18
  in
• 9:18
  the
• 9:18
  first
• 9:19
  place.
• 9:20
  So
• 9:20
  that's
• 9:20
  the
• 9:20
  first
• 9:20
  thing.
• 9:21
  Identify
• 9:21
  those
• 9:21
  triggers
• 9:22
  and
• 9:22
  stop
• 9:22
  putting
• 9:23
  yourself
• 9:23
  in
• 9:23
  a
• 9:23
  position
• 9:24
  to
• 9:24
  be
• 9:24
  surrounded
• 9:25
  by
• 9:25
  those
• 9:25
  triggers
• 9:25
  all
• 9:26
  the
• 9:26
  time.
• 9:26
  And
• 9:26
  then
• 9:27
  I'm
• 9:27
  going
• 9:27
  to
• 9:27
  encourage
• 9:27
  you
• 9:27
  to
• 9:27
  practice
• 9:28
  joyful
• 9:29
  affirmation.
• 9:30
  Not
• 9:30
  just
• 9:31
  thank
• 9:31
  God
• 9:31
  for
• 9:31
  the
• 9:31
  blessings
• 9:32
  that
• 9:32
  you
• 9:32
  have.
• 9:32
  And
• 9:32
  hey,
• 9:33
  here's
• 9:33
  something
• 9:33
  more
• 9:34
  radical.
• 9:35
  Have
• 9:35
  a
• 9:35
  blessing
• 9:35
  for
• 9:36
  others
• 9:36
  around
• 9:36
  you.
• 9:37
  Well,
• 9:37
  that's
• 9:37
  so
• 9:38
  great.
• 9:38
  I
• 9:38
  see
• 9:38
  Ted
• 9:38
  got
• 9:39
  a
• 9:39
  new
• 9:39
  car.
• 9:40
  Maybe
• 9:40
  you're
• 9:40
  on
• 9:40
  social
• 9:41
  media
• 9:41
  and
• 9:41
  you're
• 9:41
  limiting
• 9:41
  your
• 9:42
  exposure
• 9:42
  a
• 9:42
  little
• 9:42
  bit
• 9:43
  and
• 9:43
  you
• 9:43
  see
• 9:43
  that
• 9:43
  Jessica's
• 9:44
  in
• 9:44
  the
• 9:45
  islands
• 9:45
  and
• 9:45
  having
• 9:45
  a
• 9:45
  great
• 9:46
  time
• 9:46
  with
• 9:46
  her
• 9:46
  family.
• 9:46
  Well,
• 9:47
  thank
• 9:47
  you
• 9:47
  that
• 9:47
  Jessica
• 9:48
  can
• 9:48
  do
• 9:48
  that.
• 9:49
  And
• 9:49
  then
• 9:50
  the
• 9:50
  third
• 9:50
  thing,
• 9:50
  and
• 9:50
  this
• 9:50
  is
• 9:51
  another
• 9:51
  radical
• 9:52
  step,
• 9:52
  is
• 9:52
  it's
• 9:53
  time
• 9:53
  to
• 9:53
  focus
• 9:53
  on
• 9:54
  your
• 9:54
  unique
• 9:54
  path.
• 9:55
  Well,
• 9:55
  how
• 9:56
  do
• 9:56
  you
• 9:56
  do
• 9:56
  that,
• 9:56
  Ralph?
• 9:57
  Write
• 9:57
  down
• 9:58
  two
• 9:58
  or
• 9:58
  three
• 9:58
  blessings
• 9:59
  that
• 9:59
  you
• 9:59
  already
• 9:59
  have.
• 9:59
  See,
• 9:59
  it's
• 10:00
  so
• 10:00
  easy
• 10:00
  to
• 10:00
  compare
• 10:01
  ourselves.
• 10:01
  It's
• 10:01
  always
• 10:02
  to
• 10:02
  think
• 10:02
  that
• 10:02
  we
• 10:02
  don't
• 10:03
  have
• 10:03
  enough.
• 10:04
  But
• 10:04
  how
• 10:04
  many
• 10:05
  times
• 10:05
  do
• 10:05
  we
• 10:05
  just
• 10:05
  sit
• 10:06
  down
• 10:06
  and
• 10:06
  think
• 10:06
  about
• 10:06
  all
• 10:06
  the
• 10:07
  things
• 10:07
  that
• 10:07
  we
• 10:07
  already
• 10:08
  have?
• 10:09
  Write
• 10:09
  those
• 10:09
  things
• 10:10
  down.
• 10:10
  I've
• 10:11
  made
• 10:11
  a
• 10:11
  practice
• 10:11
  the
• 10:12
  last
• 10:12
  couple
• 10:12
  weeks
• 10:12
  of
• 10:12
  really.
• 10:13
  Every
• 10:13
  time
• 10:14
  my
• 10:14
  foot
• 10:14
  hits
• 10:14
  the
• 10:14
  floor
• 10:15
  in
• 10:15
  the
• 10:15
  morning,
• 10:15
  I
• 10:16
  think
• 10:16
  for
• 10:16
  just
• 10:16
  a
• 10:16
  couple
• 10:17
  minutes,
• 10:17
  I
• 10:17
  think,
• 10:17
  God,
• 10:18
  what
• 10:18
  should
• 10:18
  I
• 10:18
  be
• 10:19
  grateful
• 10:19
  for
• 10:19
  today?
• 10:19
  What
• 10:20
  are
• 10:20
  the
• 10:20
  blessings
• 10:20
  that
• 10:20
  I
• 10:21
  have
• 10:21
  in
• 10:21
  my
• 10:21
  life?
• 10:22
  And
• 10:22
  I'm
• 10:22
  going
• 10:22
  to
• 10:22
  challenge
• 10:23
  you
• 10:23
  to
• 10:23
  do
• 10:23
  the
• 10:23
  same
• 10:23
  thing
• 10:24
  because
• 10:24
  it
• 10:24
  will
• 10:24
  help
• 10:24
  you
• 10:25
  get
• 10:25
  off
• 10:25
  of
• 10:25
  that
• 10:25
  treadmill.
• 10:26
  It'll
• 10:26
  help
• 10:27
  you
• 10:27
  break
• 10:27
  that
• 10:27
  comparison
• 10:28
  trap
• 10:28
  and
• 10:29
  you'll
• 10:29
  start

  we

• 10:45
  Lord,
• 10:46
  we
• 10:46
  gotta
• 10:46
  confess
• 10:47
  right
• 10:47
  now,
• 10:47
  Lord,
• 10:48
  that
• 10:48
  we
• 10:48
  do
• 10:48
  compare
• 10:49
  ourselves
• 10:49
  to
• 10:49
  others
• 10:50
  as
• 10:50
  much
• 10:50
  as
• 10:50
  your
• 10:51
  word
• 10:51
  tells
• 10:51
  us
• 10:51
  not
• 10:51
  to
• 10:51
  do
• 10:52
  it.
• 10:52
  Lord,
• 10:52
  we
• 10:52
  do
• 10:53
  covet
• 10:53
  our
• 10:53
  neighbors
• 10:54
  things.
• 10:54
  Maybe
• 10:55
  not
• 10:55
  their
• 10:55
  donkeys
• 10:56
  or
• 10:56
  their
• 10:56
  oxmore,
• 10:56
  but
• 10:57
  we
• 10:57
  do
• 10:57
  compare
• 10:57
  ourselves
• 10:58
  to
• 10:58
  them.
• 10:58
  We
• 10:58
  covet
• 10:59
  what
• 10:59
  they
• 10:59
  have.
• 11:00
  So
• 11:00
  Lord,
• 11:01
  right
• 11:01
  now
• 11:01
  we
• 11:01
  just

  to
• 11:02
  find
• 11:03
  joy

• 11:07
  what
• 11:07
  you've
• 11:07

  what
• 11:10
  we

  Lord.

  We're

  thankful
• 11:14
  for

  that,
• 11:15
  Lord.
• 11:15
  And
• 11:16
  we

  you

  would
• 11:16
  help
• 11:17
  keep
• 11:17
  us
• 11:17
  rooted
• 11:17
  in
• 11:18
  Christ,
• 11:18
  which
• 11:18
  really
• 11:18
  is
• 11:19
  our
• 11:19
  true
• 11:19
  identity
• 11:20
  and
• 11:20
  help
• 11:20
  us
• 11:21
  break
• 11:21
  that
• 11:21
  comparison

  culture
• 11:22
  that's
• 11:23
  all
• 11:23
  around
• 11:23
  us.
• 11:23
  And
• 11:24
  Lord,
• 11:24
  we
• 11:24
  ask
• 11:24
  this
• 11:24
  in
• 11:25
  confidence
• 11:26
  in
• 11:26
  the
• 11:26
  name
• 11:26
  of
• 11:26
  Jesus.
• 11:27
  Amen.
• 11:29
  Real
• 11:29
  freedom
• 11:30
  comes
• 11:30
  when
• 11:30
  you
• 11:30
  stop
• 11:31
  chasing
• 11:31
  enough.
• 11:32
  I
• 11:33
  want
• 11:33
  you
• 11:33
  to
• 11:33
  hear
• 11:33
  that
• 11:33
  today.
• 11:34
  Real,
• 11:34
  true
• 11:35
  freedom.
• 11:36
  It
• 11:37
  comes
• 11:37
  when
• 11:37
  you
• 11:37
  stop
• 11:37
  chasing
• 11:38
  enough.
• 11:38
  So
• 11:39
  it's
• 11:39
  time
• 11:39
  to
• 11:39
  step
• 11:39

  And
