Jesus is JOY [10:30am]

The sermon explored how true joy is found only in Jesus Christ. Through the beautiful account of Mary's visit to Elizabeth in Luke 1:39-45, we witnessed how the presence of Jesus literally changed the atmosphere of the room. When Mary entered carrying Jesus in her womb, John leaped for joy, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit. This reminds us that lasting joy isn't found in the temporary happiness our culture offers, but in the everlasting presence of our Savior. The implications for our spiritual life are profound: we must stop searching for joy in all the wrong places and instead prioritize time in Christ's presence.
