In episode four of It’s Contagious, Pass It On, Dr. Michael Youssef confronts the joy-killing power of grumbling, discontentment, and spiritual apathy. Preaching from Philippians 2:12–30, he declares that joy cannot thrive in the life of a believer who resists God’s will, complains against His purposes, or tries to live in their own strength. Instead, joy is the supernatural fruit of obedience, sanctification, and the power of the Holy Spirit working through surrendered lives. Dr. Youssef warns that discontentment not only dishonors Christ—it repels the lost. True joy comes when believers die to pride, give up the rubbish of this world, and shine like lights in a dark and perverse generation, holding fast to the Word of Life. If today’s teaching stirred a question, burden, or need for prayer, you
don’t have to walk through it alone.
