    Bottom Line: Joy flourishes when Christ is exalted, even in the face of hardship.

    Last week, we began a new series through Paul’s letter to the Church at Philippi. The Book of Philippians shows what it means to live with defiant joy. And here’s what I mean by that: “defiant joy” is a joy that stands firm regardless of what life throws our way. Even in his imprisonment, Paul ...read more

    Pain Turned Into Joy Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 12, 2009
    based on 12 ratings
     | 18,254 views

    It seems unreal that pain could be turned into joy. Yet pain is the very stuff of joy. It will come, not instantaneously, but completely. The risen Christ proves this, and can transform our disappointments, disillusionments, and shame into joy.

    “You will have pain, but y our pain will turn into joy.” That brings back memories of the doctor’s office and that giant needle moving ever closer. “This will hurt a little bit.” A little bit! When you are a year old, it hurts a lot, and there is no joy in it. No, I do not remember being one ...read more

    God doesn't promise a sorrow-free life, but God does promise that joy will come. Weeping may last through the night, but joy comes with the morning.

    A. I’m sure that many of us are familiar with the musical Annie, about the optimistic red-headed orphaned girl named Annie, who is eventually adopted by a billionaire. 1.

    If You Want Joy

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Mar 13, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,759 views

    Genuine joy comes after we do what Christ bids us do, and is grounded in our relationship to Him. In fact, the real issue is not our joy but His.

    If you want joy! What a ridiculous premise! Of course you want joy. Of course we want to be happy. Of course all of us want to feel deep satisfaction with life. We want joy. That's just self-evident. The trouble is, we don't know how to get that joy. We don't understand where joy comes from, how ...read more

    Sarah’s laughter at being promised a son in her old age.

    They say, “Laughter is the best medicine.” When was the last time you had a good laugh? I’ve had a little more time to think about this question, so I’ll share my answer. Earlier in the week we had a little evening picnic with some friends and at times laughed our heads off. I don’t even ...read more

    Bottomline: Joy flourishes when we treasure knowing Christ above all else.

    Over the past several weeks we’ve been working our way through Paul’s letter to the Philippians and we’ve discovered how joy isn’t something that simply happens to us. It’s a deliberate response to the realities of who Christ is and what He’s done in our lives. We've explored how joy can ...read more

    Contributed by Rodney V Johnson on Mar 6, 2021
     | 6,223 views

    In Part 3 of this series we examine what it will take to have a joy that is full. This is the joy that God desires for us to have - but do we really want it bad enough to do what it takes to get it?

    The Power of Joy – Part 3 A Joy That Is Full Scripture: Second Corinthians 6:10; 1 John 1:1-4; John 5:19, 39 Last week a program was aired about the race riots that took place in my hometown of Columbia, Tennessee 75 years ago.

    If you’ve ever heard about the life of Mother Teresa, you know her story is remarkable.

She didn’t live for comfort, recognition, or personal success. ...read more
