What a joy-filled conversation we have for today! In this episode of the "Sent Beyond" podcast, we explore the profound concept of joy within the Christian life. We delve into scriptures that highlight the essence of joy as a virtue rooted in faith, not merely a fleeting emotion dependent on circumstances. Discover how intentional choices, faith in God's promises, and a deep connection with Him can cultivate lasting joy, transcending life's challenges.

We'll examine the biblical teachings on joy, learning to choose it amidst trials and temptations that threaten to steal it away. Through insights from others and the wisdom of scriptures, we aim to equip ourselves to live out our faith daily, experiencing the fullness of joy in God's presence. Grab your coffee, open your heart, and join us on this journey beyond the sanctuary, where joy and gratitude go hand in hand, pointing us back to His eternal love.
