Arrival of the Source of All Joy

Shepherd of the Valley Messages

– What is your favorite Christmas song/movie?

– What is your response to this John Ortberg quote: “God is the most joyful being in the universe.” Do you experience God or church as joyful? Why or why not?

– But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,(Galatians 5:22). How do you see this fruit grow in your life or in others? How does joy play a role?

– Have you considered the concept that God finds joy in you? How does that change your picture or experience of God?
