You know the word “joy,” but do you really experience it?
In today’s episode, podcaster Rachel Earp and I are getting honest about how easy it is to lose sight of joy—especially when you’re juggling school drop-offs, work deadlines, dinner plans, and the occasional (or daily) meltdown.
But here’s the truth: Joy isn’t just a fleeting emotion—it’s a posture of the heart. One that’s rooted in hope, not hustle.
Whether you're folding laundry, sitting in traffic, or surviving another Monday, joy is possible. And it’s worth fighting for.
In this episode, we talk about:
The difference between happiness and biblical joy
Why the enemy wants you stuck in despair
Simple ways to cultivate joy in your everyday life
How gratitude and perspective are weapons against the lies that steal joy
What it looks like to anchor your heart in hope—even on hard days
“Not every day is good, but there is something good in every day.”
If you’re feeling burnt out, burdened, or like joy is something other people have time for—this one’s for you.
