    Christians often sing "Joy To The World" as a Christmas carol... but that's not what Isaac Watts wanted to sing about when he first wrote the song. Why did Watts write this song, and what can that mean for us?

    Back in the 1700s, there was a man who wrote hymns… a lot of hymns (nearly 750 songs during his lifetime). He was a very famous and popular song writer in his day – and his name was Isaac Watts. He wrote a several songs that are still being sung today and we’re going to sing a few of them… a ...read more

    3rd Sunday in Advent, Year A; The world is looking for the kind of joy God has promised us in Christ, but it is a deeper joy than just saying, "Don’t worry, be happy!"

    During the Christmas season, we find ourselves in a deficit of joy. Isaiah describes finding joy in the desert . . . perhaps we are seeking joy in the wrong places.

    How many of you are just absolutely overflowing with joy right now? Let’s be honest with each other, OK? Is there even one person here who can truthfully say, I’m so overflowing with joy I can hardly contain myself? Just one? Would you like to know how to get that kind of joy in your life? ...read more

    Trials and tests are no fun. James doesn’t tell us to consider it fun but to "consider it all joy." Trials and tests are gut wrenching and drawn out at times, but the one thing that we must know is that God is with us through the whole ordeal.

    My purpose is to show that God loves us and wants us to be filled with His joy.

    We find joy by saturating our minds and hearts with the future promises of God.

    This morning, I’d like to talk about joy. How does that statement make you feel? Hopeful? Glad? Or does it arouse feelings of apprehension? Joy is a funny topic. You would expect that people would enjoy hearing about joy; that they would welcome a discourse on such a positive topic. But I’ll bet ...read more
