It’s easy to rejoice when life is going well, but what about when it’s hard? First Thessalonians 5:16 says to “rejoice always,” but what does that mean? Over the next five days, Denise Renner covers numerous reasons we have to rejoice, how to choose joy, and the effects joy has on our lives. Once you obey God’s command to “rejoice always,” its transformative effects manifest in your life!



Rejoice Always!

In the midst of a dark and trying year, we’ve had a hope and light to guide us through. That light is the presence of God illuminated through His Word, even for those disproportionately affected by the pandemic and those who serve on the frontlines. This 20-day journey is full of devotional articles and reflections that will remind you of God’s presence and faithfulness in times of struggle.

People often say, “Give God your burdens.” Do you ever wonder: How do I do that? The brokenness of the world feels too heavy. And as much as you desire to shine the light of Jesus, you wonder what that looks like when you struggle to see the light yourself. This devotional looks at how we can be lights for Jesus even when our own world feels dark.

Arise and Shine

In this five-day devotional, we'll explore the godly attribute of joy, the second fruit of the Spirit listed in Galatians 5:22-23.



Fruit of the Spirit: Joy

One of the biggest challenges we all face is how to seek God and how to draw closer to Him. At first this may seem frustrating to us, but walking with God is one of the most beautiful experiences there is. The best thing is that we can all have that privilege. Discover what it means to walk with God.  ---Sebastian Franz

Shout it from the rooftops, “Joy to the world, the Lord has come!”
