Enduring Joy

Imagine if you had nothing to hide from God? From others? From yourself? Imagine the contented joy that you would feel?

Our joy comes from knowing that God is in control; our peace comes from our identity and destiny in Christ.

As followers of Jesus, God calls us to live counter-culturally as faithful citizens of heaven here on earth.

We’re VULNERABLE when we fight alone but UNSTOPPABLE when we fight together.

When we live out our salvation and have the same attitude as Christ we shine Christ’s light into the world. As Christians, we are lights, but how brightly do we shine and how noticeable is our sparkle?

In God’s Kingdom, the way up is down and the way down is up.

Love is to be the defining quality of your life as a Christian.

Joy makes us hopeful and resilient even in the face of adverse circumstances.
