Send us a text"Joy levels are like the temperature of an oven. We can choose our ingredients carefully, but the oven temperature will determine what our careful preparations will yield. Consider the effect of angry or joyful parents on family prayer and Biblereading. As joy increases so does the chance that transformation will go in a positive direction. Joy levels greatly affect whether our efforts will be productive and lasting. Why would a powerful factor go unnoticed by most of the church?"-Jim Wilder, Joy Changes EverythingHave you ever considered the idea of "joy-building?" I hadn't until I found a powerful article, Joy Changes Everything, by Jim Wilder. With all sincerity, it changed my life. It showed up at exactly the point in time that I needed to hear a message on how and why some of us can't sustain joy. After all, what is joy, anyway? I thought I knew. In today's Advent Glimmer, I share Jim Wilder's article and offer a beautiful meditation for your heart, mind, and soul. Be sure to download the PDF, grab a highlighter, and create a sacred space to read it thoroughly. I'm hoping his words have the same effect on you as they did on me.Read Jim Wilder's Love Changes EverythingVisit Jim's site for more information on his book and work: Life Model WorksJoin the adventure:Heartlift Central on Substack.
