The Source of Joy | Advent Week 2

from Downtown Hope Hosted by Downtown Hope

In a season where we tend to feel pressure to be happy, many of us are working and walking through the traumas of life- the effects of sin in the world. Here our prevailing culture doesn't have a resource to negotiate the space between "putting on a happy face" and "acknowledging the ache of the world". Yet in Isaiah 9.1-7 we find people accessing a resource that has the power to scale the ladder of sorrow: joy. The question is where does it come from or what sources joy?
