Joy As Resistance

from Mosaic UMC Sermons · host Matt Stout

In this week's sermon, Joy as Resistance, we explore how joy is not a soft escape from reality but a powerful, Spirit-filled act of defiance in a weary world. Drawing from Nehemiah 8, we see how God calls his people to rejoice even in the rubble because the joy of the Lord is our strength. In a time of despair and division, cultivating joy becomes a radical way to resist fear, foster connection, and hold fast to hope.
