    Although Paul was in prison, he remained "joyful." Paul warns us of five different "joy stealers" and offers ways in which to avoid them.

    “JOY STEALERS” Phil. 4:4 “Rejoice in the Lord always, and again I say, rejoice.” It is as much a command to "rejoice always," as it is to "not steal." An unhappy Christian is very unchristlike. Remember that the "Joy of the Lord is our strength." Today we will discuss five things that will ...read more
