Westminster Presbyterian Sumter

Join Pastor Stuart for the next part in our series, Dark Side of the Mind, a sermon series on dealing with the "dark emotions" (anger, anxiety, depression, envy, guilt, and shame). In our fifth lesson, we turn to various passages in the Old and New Testament as we here an exhortation on . . . "Minding Our Envy". In this lesson, we see: To deal with envy well, it’s helpful to understand a few things: While often conflated, envy and jealousy are technically not the same.  There is a good bit of complexity with both envy and jealousy. Envy is often subtle and hidden. Envy drains joy. The love of Christ for us is the cure for the sin of envy. Therefore, we ought to: Grant that you may be envious. Refuse to allow envy to grow. Aim for God’s glory and relational peace. Speak truth to yourself.  Pray for those you envy. So, by the work of the Holy Spirit, let’s put away our envy and grow in humble gratitude.
