Jesus and Envy

Feb 4, 2024    Lewis Roderick

Envy. What comes to mind when you hear the word?


We’ll likely think it’s similar to jealousy, but that’s only half the case. Whereas jealousy wants what the other’s got, envy goes further; it wants the other to lose it completely. Of course, we rarely think about envy like this. In fact, we rarely think of it at all.


In this message, we see the way of envy in Saul’s response to David, and we’re invited to behold Christ, our true King, and the only real way out of it.
