In 1643, Puritan pastor Jeremiah Burroughs wrote a work titled \"The Rare Jewel of Christian Contentment\" that has as much resonance in our day as it did in his. Now pastor and author Andrew M. Davis helps contemporary Christians rediscover the remarkable truths found in this largely forgotten work.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith powerful new illustrations and a keen sense of all that makes modern Christians restless, Davis challenges readers to confront the sources of discontent in their lives and embrace Paul's teaching on contentment in all circumstances.
