    Joy Isn’t the Absence of Sadness

    Sometimes we think we have to keep smiling to show we have faith, or that being sad means we’re somehow failing spiritually. But the Psalms show us something different—moments where tears and worship happen at the same time. In this episode, we’re talking about that honest place where joy and sorrow mix. We’ll look at how to stop thinking one cancels out the other, and how God meets us right in the messy middle of it all. Because joy doesn’t mean pretending everything’s fine. It means knowing deep down that even when it’s not, God is still near—and still good. You are LOVED. If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, leave a review and share with a friend.
