申命記 4:20

Too often we get filled up with spiritual “junk” (i.e., relationships, climbing career ladders) and then we have no room for spiritual nourishment. The hunger that we’re feeling is not just in our minds and bodies; it’s in our souls. We try to satisfy our hunger with shallow things, yet only closeness with God truly satisfies the deepest parts of us. He’s not just trying to change today’s meal; he’s trying to change your appetite. In this study, we’ll explore what it means to be satisfied in God and God alone, and how to arrive at that point.
