The Art of Divine Contentment
A searching and practical exposition of Philippians 4:11 — "I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content." Watson, one of the most beloved Puritan preachers, diagnoses the disease of discontent with penetrating honesty and prescribes its cure with pastoral warmth. From the nature of true contentment to the divine motives that produce it, this is one of the most thorough and encouraging treatments of the subject in Christian literature.
