Have you ever felt like joy is risky after disappointment, fatigue, or loss? In this episode, we explore how to rediscover true joy—the kind that isn’t forced, isn’t Instagram-perfect, and isn’t denial—but instead strengthens and sustains you through life’s hardest seasons.

In this episode, we’ll dive into:

  • Personal stories of guarded joy, when happiness feels fragile and hope is cautious
  • Biblical insights on joy, drawing from Nehemiah 8:10, Psalm 16:11, and John 15:11
  • Why joy is an act of courage, not just a fleeting emotion
  • Practical ways to practice courageous joy daily, embracing small moments, gratitude, and God’s presence

Whether you’re navigating grief, life transitions, or simply seeking renewed hope and resilience, this episode will remind you that joy can coexist with pain. It’s not about pretending life is easy—it’s about discovering strength, presence, and courage in every moment.
