Topic: Joy

Does life ever feel mundane? Another word for that is "dull". In this sermon from Luke 2:8-12 and Matthew 10:10-11 we learn how Jesus brings us JOY. Sometimes life can feel a bit mundane, but when we understand the fundamental difference between HAPPINESS and HOLINESS, we begin to get a better perspective on what true, biblical JOY really is. As Americans we are good at seeking short term pleasure and comfort. However, that kind of pursuit is fleeting. Yet Joy leaves us filled up.

Listen, people will do things out of their own selfish desires and they don't even know it some times. You do, too! But we have the Word of God that we can take time in, and we can listen to people talk about Jesus. We can actually go to the Bible App and look at what Jesus said. And then we can say, "I'm not sure that's quite right, what you're saying, Preacher." Foundationally, go to the Bible and open it up! And John is trying to establish with us that he's about to tell us is true! You can believe it! You can base your life on it!

Self Righteous People Miss Out On Righteousness, Peace and Joy.
