Living A Life of Joy - Fall 2024

Updated: Sep 18



Sept. 18 - October 20, 2024

9:30am Sundays or 7pm Wednesdays


Beloved, we are living in times of crime and criticism, pain and problems, trials and tribulations, stress and setbacks and if these issues you have had the privilege to escape there is also the routine of life. Many people live for happiness only to find out that happiness is based on happenings.  The one thing that the scriptures teach us is to rejoice always (1 Thessalonians 5:16). The question for many of us, if not most of us, is how do we live a life of joy when all or some of the things above are happening in our life?


I believe the answer is found in the book of Philippians.


After all Paul wrote this book when he was in a Roman prison chained to a palace guard and yet he was able to find reasons to rejoice despite his circumstances. I am very excited to teach this 5-week bible study on “Living A Life of Joy.”



Some of the things we will learn:

  1. The Biblical definition of Joy.

  2. Shining like stars in a dark world.

  3. Taking hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me.

  4. Rejoicing in the Lord Always.

  5. Learning the secret of contentment.


The great Christian writer C.S. Lewis says: “Joy is the serious business of heaven.”
