Listen "30. How to Experience Joy No Matter Your Circumstances"
Episode Synopsis
In today’s devo, John talks about Jerry Hawthorne, a beloved teacher and mentor, and how he described Paul’s teaching on joy as more than a mood; it is a worldview. True joy is not about forcing a smile or pretending everything is fine. It is a peace-filled posture toward life that accepts both hardship and blessing with trust in God’s presence. This joy stands as “defiant nevertheless,” an attitude that refuses to let sorrow, fear, or loss have the final word.Become New is here to help you grow spiritually one day at a time.TEXT US at 855-888-0444EMAIL US at [email protected] OUR WEEKDAY EMAILS WITH EXTRA GOODIES at becomenew.com/subscribeGET A TEXT REMINDER FOR NEW VIDEOS: text BECOME to 855-888-0444SEND US PRAYER REQUESTS: via text or email; we'll send you a written prayer from our team😊 Join Our Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1CnqywVp9s/🤳Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/become.new/Music in this episode: Starry Dream - Uptempo by A.
