In this message, we explore the Fruit of the Spirit: Joy (Chara)—a joy that is deeper than happiness and unshaken by circumstances. Unlike fleeting emotions, biblical joy is a Spirit-given gift that flourishes even in hardship, rooted in God’s presence, grace, and promises.
Discover how joy differs from happiness, why it endures through trials, and how it flows from our relationship with Christ. Through Scripture, we see that joy is not constant excitement but a steady, Spirit-born gladness—whether in sacrifice, perseverance, or the celebration of redemption.
This sermon unpacks how we can anchor ourselves in God’s grace, choose a Kingdom perspective in trials, and share in the joy of heaven. As Jesus promised, “Your joy no one will take from you” (John 16:22).
