Finding Joy in Prayer, Bible Reading, and Attending Church

from Anchored in the Word with Dave · host Dave Jenkins

In this episode of Anchored in the Word, Dave Jenkins addresses a struggle many believers face but rarely voice—losing joy in prayer, Bible reading, and attending church. Drawing from Psalm 16:11, Psalm 119:103, Acts 2:42–47, and other passages, Dave explains why joy in these spiritual disciplines can fade and offers biblical, practical steps to rekindle delight in God's presence. You'll hear encouragement rooted in the gospel, advice for building consistency, and reminders that these are not burdens, but gifts that nourish the soul. Whether you feel spiritually dry or simply want to deepen your joy in the Lord, this episode will help you return to the sweetness of knowing God through His Word, prayer, and the fellowship of the saints. ________________________________________ 📖 Scripture References • Psalm 16:11 • Psalm 119:103 • Acts 2:42, 46–47 • Romans 8:1 • Hebrews 10:24–25 For more from Anchored in the Word please visit: https://servantsofgrace.org/theology-for-lifepage/
