    A consideration of the biblical basis for this beloved Christmas carol.

    A young boy once complained to his father that most of the hymns they sang in church were boring to him - too far behind the times - tiresome tunes and meaningless words.

    No matter how you look at it, the gospel is good news of great joy. Do you have joy? Real Joy? Everlasting joy? What is joy? Why did the angel proclaim Christ’s birth as an occasion of great joy? How can you and I have everlasting joy?

    God can give us a joy that lasts forever

    Two weeks ago I finally gave in and started getting a subscription to the Boston Globe.

    Joy In Trials?!

     | 2,810 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.

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

Did you know that nowhere else in the religious writings of the world, outside of ...read more
