Contentment may not be what we expect. It may be more profound than we imagine. But it is within easy reach of all of us.

If anyone has a right to feel angry with life, then the author is a strong candidate. Having battled with lung disease from a young age, suffered at the hands of bullies, and, reluctantly, given up her much-loved teaching job, she has plenty to complain about.

But she has made a point of exploring contentment. She has drawn particularly on Paul's letter to the Philippians. 'Contentment is something we can all catch hold of,' she believes, 'whatever circumstances we find ourselves in.'

This is a message which we need to hear, whether we are lifelong sufferers, like the author, or facing deprivation or injustice of another sort. Or we may simply have fallen into bad habits. We cannot fail to be uplifted, and hopefully transformed, by the author's discoveries as we learn to buck trends within society and the church.
Industry Reviews
Catching Contentment opened my eyes and introduced many new ideas and concepts that I'd never truly thought through before. The overriding message I'd take forward from it is that life truly is a journey of surrender to Christ as we move forward and let the past go. When we ask for, and accept, Christ's forgiveness, we can tap into his future desires for our lives and seek to be content as we wait for his promises to be fulfilled. I loved the practical reflections which draw us into the topic and help us reflect on our identity and contentment in a personal way.--Michelle Parnell, writer at Mummy From the Heart, the UK's leading Christian Lifestyle and Parenting Blog
