161: Thanks In All Things | Joy Is Rooted In The Eternal
Description
Key Truth: Joy is rooted in the eternal, not the temporal.
Key Verse: John 16:16 –33
Summary: Through Christ, we know the end of the story. Practicing self-compassion and gratitude when life is prickly allows us to experience the joy of the Lord rather than getting stuck in discouragement.
This four-week series begins with a premise rooted in 1 Thessalonians 5:16 –18, which instructs us to rejoice, pray, and be thankful in every circumstance. That is a challenging command! Can we really rejoice always? Look around. Life is full of messy and difficult situations, over many of which we have little control. This series examines how to find strength in the Lord, practice gratitude, embrace lament, and find support in our community to endure whatever life throws at us with a joyful heart.
