Joy can feel like the first thing to disappear during the Christmas season--especially when life feels unresolved. In this Advent message, Pastor Jason explores Luke 1:39-45 and reminds us that biblical joy does not wait for everything to make sense.
As Mary visits Elizabeth, joy erupts not because circumstances have changed, but because God's promises are trusted. This sermon invites listeners to rediscover a childlike faith that believes God is faithful--even in the waiting.
Whether you're walking through Advent for the first time or returning to faith with questions, this sermon offers encouragement, honesty, and hope rooted in Jesus. Discover how joy grows when we trust God like a child.
