From Today’s Episode
In today’s episode, we talk about the Vine, the Branch, and your joy.
If you've ever felt like joy is something you have to work up or fake your way into, this one's for you. We're talking about what Jesus really meant when He said He wants your joy to be full, and why joy grows out of staying close to Him instead of trying harder. This is faith-based reflection for anyone who's tired and just wants to receive a little good news today.
Our Good God talks with us and we're created for life with Him, so let's experience more of it!
Verse
John 15
Question
God, what's something I have misunderstood about joy, and what do you offer me instead?
