    Inexpressible Joy

    Contributed by Dr. Jonathan Vorce on Dec 1, 2024
     | 1,018 views

    This kind of joy is not rooted in the absence of struggle or challenges but springs from a deeper place—a place anchored in God's promises. Today, we will explore this profound joy, its foundation, its vast greatness, and how it can be truly ours.

    1 Peter 1:6-9 Introduction A Kid Anticipating Christmas Use the excitement of a child counting down to Christmas morning. The child’s joy isn’t just about the day arriving; it’s about the hope and anticipation of what the day will bring. Similarly, our joy in Christ is grounded in the ...read more

    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

    Joy Unspeakable

    Contributed by Roger Smith on Sep 28, 2024
     | 1,439 views

    A heavenly joy; fruit of a deep heart relationship with God; a foretaste of the riches of His glorious inheritance; the promise of God to His children. The result of belonging to and resting in Him. It's a joy that cannot fail as long as we remain IN Him.

    JOY UNSPEAKABLE & FULL OF GLORY Reading: 1 Peter Chapter 1 (NIV) Text: v8 (AV) ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory. Background The apostle Peter, wrote to the Jewish Christians who had been scattered due to persecution around the time of the stoning of Stephen, during the ...read more

    Joy is something deeper than happiness. And the apostle John speaks of having no greater joy when writing the letter that we know as Third John.

    Alba 11-3-2024 NO GREATER JOY III John 1-4 Have you ever been surprised by joy? Something happens when you least expect it, even in the midst of otherwise sad feelings or grief, and joy comes, at least for a moment?

     | 1,447 views

    "....not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?" God is loving, kind, good, and wants His very best for his children. There can (and is) be JOY in repentance!

    INTRODUCTION Romans 2:1-5 “Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things. But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against them which commit ...read more

    The Joy Of Giving Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Apr 29, 2023
     | 2,787 views

    The book of Philippians is, to a large extent, a thank you note from Paul to the church for their financial gift. We find that it is not only the one who receives the gift who is blessed, but the ones who gives the gift are greatly blessed.

    Philippians is considered the epistle of joy. That is because there are so many references to joy and rejoicing (over 15). There are so many references that are so prominent that Joy is considered the theme of the letter. Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice. (Philippians ...read more

    How helpless is man though he holds position, power, wealth and fame! Not knowing what is lying ahead, all he has are a loan from his creator God- leaving everything here on this side of the eternity when he departs this world.

    Live today! Never miss today’s blessings. God is a God of present tense. He calls Himself “ I am that I am”. Many of us dream of a better future when we can enjoy the life comfortably without the struggles we have now. It is only a human hope, with no sound base (Proverbs 19:21) . None of us know ...read more

    The Reality Of Joy

    Contributed by Denn Guptill on May 28, 2023
     | 1,949 views

    What is Biblical Joy? Throughout the New Testament, we are encouraged to be joyful and to rejoice. But does that mean that we always have to be happy?

    The question that Paul seems to be trying to answer for most of this passage of scripture is, how Jewish do you have to be to be a Christian? It was the question of whether or not Christians had to follow all of the Jewish regulations and guidelines was an ongoing debate throughout the New ...read more

    Joy In Trials?!

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Feb 18, 2022
     | 2,776 views

    The idea that we could find joy in trials seems very strange. But it makes sense - and it could radically change the way we respond to the trials that inevitably come.

    We’ve now reached the last in our series of ‘Messages of Encouragement’. And we’ve come to a very difficult piece of teaching! ‘James’ – whoever James may be – tells us TO CONSIDER IT PURE JOY WHENEVER WE FACE TRIALS OF MANY KINDS! Wow! That sounds crazy! How can we understand it? The general ...read more
