    Happy Happy Joy Joy

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 15, 2025
     | 192 views

    True joy is not tied to circumstance but planted by the Spirit, anchored in Christ, and sustained by what is true, pure, lovely, and eternal.

    Introduction: A Cartoon Jingle Some of you may remember a wild cartoon from the 1990s that sang, “Happy Happy Joy Joy!” over and over again. It was silly, catchy, and fun—but it never told you what happiness or joy really are. In that way it’s a lot like the world we live in. We hum the tune of ...read more

    Christians have no need to attempt to vindicate themselves through scrupulous attention to legal system since in Jesus Christ are provided with righteousness and an Advocate.

    EASTER III I Peter 2:19?25 John 10:1?10 PSALM 23 "Count it all joy to follow in His steps." I Peter 2:19?25 For this is a gracious thing, when, mindful of God, one endures sorrows while suffering unjustly. For what credit is it if, when you sin and are beaten for it, you endure? But if when ...read more

    We are to be the light of Christ to the world

    Bible study for Matthew 5:16 “In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven.” To get a full understanding of verse 16 we should begin the study where Jesus first says the disciples are to be light.

    Romans 8: 28-30 shares with us at least two truths: 1. Our bad things, which are bad things, work together for good, and 2. Our good things which are transforming cannot be lost. Updated July 2020.

    Turning Hardship To Joy

    based on 54 ratings
     | 5,699 views

    Sometimes God allows things to get difficult so He can produce greater joy in and through and with us. Jesus knew that His Father often used tragedy to cause people to look to heaven for solutions to their problems.

    John 15:11-16 Illustration: A cynic asked an elderly believer who had endured great physical pain for 20 years, "What do you think of your God now?" The godly sufferer replied, "I think of Him more than ever." Sorrow can be the means of bringing us heart-to-heart with God. When repeated strokes ...read more

    Jesus invites us to rethink how we evaluate human worth with a parable about a successful man whom God regarded as a fool.

    Text: Luke 12:15-21 Introduction This passage of Scripture is troubling. It may not strike us as troubling on the surface. Indeed we are likely to say the obligatory “Amen” on reading or hearing this passage read in worship. (Remember Amen means “so let it be” or “I agree, I concur, I ...read more

    God created marriages for our good and for His glory - how then do we seek to make our marriage the very best it can be? What are the "little foxes" that threaten the home and how do we deal with them?

    For Epiphany: As Richard Foster wrote about "Money, Sex, and Power", is it possible the Wise Men’s gifts are warnings to Jesus and His family about these things? Complete joy comes from what Jesus did with these issues.

    Who we are and what we have are two entirely different things, but we confuse them. We insist on identifying who we are by what we have. Who we are and what we have are not the same thing. We are more by far than the material goods we possess. And yet everywhere we are identified by our stuff. ...read more

    In James 1:9-12, James helps us understand that in order for us to persevere in our trials with joy, we must adopt God’s eternal perspective on poverty and wealth.

    Allow me to start with two stories to get us thinking about perspectives on having too much or too little money. 1. I read about an exclusive school in Hollywood that was attended by children of movie stars, producers, and directors. a. One day, the children were asked to write a composition on ...read more
