Hey Carpool Crew… Happy Monday! I’m Pastor Justin, and I’m so glad you’re here as we keep moving through Advent toward Christmas. Today we’re talking about joy—the kind that stays with you because it comes from Jesus.
John 15:11 (CSB) says, “I have told you these things so that my joy may be in you and your joy may be complete.”
Jesus didn’t say, “Go find joy.” He said, “I’m giving you My joy.” This joy doesn’t disappear on hard Mondays, rough mornings, or stressful school days. It stays because it comes from Jesus.
So today, ask Jesus for His joy. Look for one good thing. Smile. Encourage someone. Let His joy be with you all day.
Remember, no matter where you are or how you’re listening, God loves you.
Talk about it together: Where have you seen Jesus’ joy show up in your life lately?
