Where’s Your Joy?

When is the last time you experienced joy? If it’s been awhile, you’re not alone! More than a quarter of our nation struggles with anxiety or depression, and almost half of the world’s population reports feeling unsatisfied with their life. The good news is, joy is within your reach! In today’s post, I’m sharing five practices to rediscover joy and cultivate a grateful heart, regardless of your circumstances.

The Gift of Joy

When was the last time you rejoiced? It seems that many of us have lost our joy because, like peace, we’ve anchored it in the wrong things.

Joy is a fruit of the Spirit that is cultivated the more we fix our eyes on Christ. In today’s post, find out how you can cultivate joy and embody contentment regardless of your circumstances.
