• This Series: What really makes for a happy life? A dream job, a bigger house, or a new relationship? If you’re always hungry for the next big thing, but frustrated because it never seems to satisfy you, you might be Chasing Carrots. It’s time to hop off the treadmill and chase after something real. This five-week series is about the things people commonly chase after that only bring fleeting happiness, fulfillment, or validation.
• This Week: There are three types of perfectionists: Self-oriented, externally oriented, and others oriented. Simply said either pressure to be perfect comes from within, without, or from other people. Regardless of where it comes from, trying to obtain perfection is futile and exhausting. Thankfully, we have a Savior who gives us grace!

This deep-seated desire shows up thoughts like, “Do you like me?” “Please recognize me1” “Accept me!” Here is the truth: there is nothing wrong with being famous. The desire for fame is dangerous to your life and especially your faith. The continual search for significance is like a hamster chasing carrots.

• This Week: Our society bombards us with advertisements that tell us that what we don’t have is what we need to be happy and fulfilled. As American’s the good news is… we are rich! The bad news is… we are rich! The truth of God’s word tells us, a person’s life does not consist of the abundance of stuff we have. We don’t need what’s temporary. We need what eternal. Not more stuff but more Jesus!
