Pastor Sara Olson-Smith preaches on joy and the way joy bursts forth like a spring in the desert. Joy sometimes comes in the most difficult of times, surprising us. Many of have known our own desert exiles. A season defined by sorrow, despair, longing, or grief. Times in our lives that don’t seem like we’d hoped they’d be. But Isaiah says to be strong and not to fear, the Lord will come to save you.
Preaching text: Isaiah 35: 1-10
