Join the JOYLAND Community as we illuminate and revelate around the mystery surrounding darkness in the bible and in creation. Inspired by the darkness described during Jesus' crucifixion following our Easter message, Jessica challenges us to potentially view darkness (and God's presence) as you've never seen before! This is a must watch worth contemplating and investigating with us.

This week, the JOYLAND Community explores the expansive concept of light—not just as brightness, but as presence, revelation, and identity. Rather than opposing darkness, light works in harmony with it, revealing wisdom and transformation. Jessica presents the concept that light is intrinsic to our being, not something we strive for, and she encourages embodying light through gentleness, wisdom, and authenticity.

As the JOYLAND Community looks back and reflects on Easter, we contemplate and revelate: Using our place and timing to plug into the various stories of how those disciples, friends, followers, persecutors, and even enemies might have encountered the risen Jesus Himself—to most of their surprise—was undeniably alive again. * No one seemed to expect Him to come back to life. Should they have? * Some were quick to believe, but usually once He revealed Himself (even then some doubted…fear seemed to be involved). * Some you wouldn’t have expected to believe apparently did! Who were they? As it was that first few weeks following Jesus’ resurrection, it is not in doctrine that we are called to believe in—but a person—Jesus. Belief in doctrine DOES NOT make us Christians! The resurrection presents each of us with the invitation to believe in and know Jesus, who is alive today, right now in our lives. Jesus makes us living sons and daughters of His Father and Our Father, His God and Our God.

A simple Look into one of the centerpieces of God’s goodness we can celebrate this weekend with Jesus on the cross. How can we interpret the events of the cross? First, explore what is recorded in scripture about the event(s) for us to read? Second, if available, let our interpretation be informed by any relevant teaching or prophetic scripture explaining or foretelling the event(s)… Third, recognize (and question if necessary) the influence that popular or common interpretations and theological explanations have on our beliefs… Finally, don’t fall into the trap of finalizing what you ‘believe’ without actually asking God! After all, He IS with us, He loves & speaks to us, and He was there!

The opposite of simplicity seems to be complexity. Complexity often leads to confusion. Let’s overcome confusion? 1 Cor 14:33 NASU 33 for God is not a God of confusion but of peace, as in all the churches of the saints. Join the JOYLAND Community as we discuss: Are there areas of your faith in God (Father-Son-Spirit) that are potentially vulnerable to confusion & loss of Simplicity & Singleness through complexity? Possibilities we have looked at: * conflicting biblical or doctrinal assumptions – options on eschatology * prayers v. delayed answers - love/forgiveness/mercy/judgment/punishment * cultural justice v. cultural mercy – needing money v. loving money – others? If so…ask, How can I bring my heart and mind back to “… the simplicity that moves into the Christ (Jesus)?” (because that simplicity leads into relationship, peace & trust) Follow along at our social outlets: https://joylandlife.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/joylandlife/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5-vPe7h_wjctIQxnaUQSnQ?view_as=subscriber Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/joyland-life/id1494637858 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6gCbEDE8pgrNhHlG0WM0fo?si=6fSKeO87SoGrx2BOUveHfQ&nd=1 Zoom: https://www.zoom.us/j/3377733377 Joyland App: https://tithely.app.link/joyland (You must follow this through your phone.)

2 Cor 11:3 KJV … but I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity (NT:572 [haplotes]) that is in [eis/into] Christ. 2 Cor 11:-4 KJV 1 Would to God ye could bear with me a little in my folly: and indeed bear with me. 2 For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ. 3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. 4 For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him. The most straightforward literal translation of the phrase above: A literal rendering that preserves the simple meaning of eis would be: “the simplicity; the [one] into the Christ.” or “that simplicity that is into the Christ.

If our doings result in rewards, what are the connections between Doing, Rewards, and our Belief / Faith? Can we find connection between BELIEF/FAITH & DOING & REWARDS? * Our “Reward” is Both Personal & Relational - - Is GOD WITH US (His Full Triune Self) the ESSENCE & REALITY of our REWARD? * The Big Result of Our Faith? We Get To Know God! - - Jesus, after revealing the true nature of ETERNAL LIFE, gave us a glimpse of what the GLORY OF HIS PERSONAL/INCARNATE ETERNAL LIFE experience consisted of: DOING WHAT HIS FATHER (and our Father) GAVE HIM TO DO. * Another Huge Result of Our Faith: God’s Pleasure 1) How important is it to recognize God as your Reward(er)? Really Important, because it is presented here as equal to believing that HE EXISTS as He is! 2) How important is the possibility of us being able to be PLEASING to GOD? God’s proclamation of HIS PLEASURE is central to His REDEMPTIVE GIVING! * God’s Pleasure Can Lead To Faith - - Galatians 1:15 But when God, who had set me apart even from my mother's womb and called me through His grace, was pleased 16 to reveal His Son in me so that I might preach Him among the Gentiles... * Is God’s Pleasure a Response Out From His Love? Join the JOYLAND Community as we revelate in this discussion on: - God Himself (Father, Son & Spirit) as our Reward (or even exceeding great reward) - His ‘pleasure’ or ‘being pleased with us’ as part of that reward… - His ‘pleasure’ possibly being a natural, intentional response out of His love… Follow along at our social outlets: https://joylandlife.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/joylandlife/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5-vPe7h_wjctIQxnaUQSnQ?view_as=subscriber Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/joyland-life/id1494637858 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6gCbEDE8pgrNhHlG0WM0fo?si=6fSKeO87SoGrx2BOUveHfQ&nd=1 Zoom: https://www.zoom.us/j/3377733377 Joyland App: https://tithely.app.link/joyland (You must follow this through your phone.)

If our doings result in rewards, what are the connections between Doing, Rewards, and our Belief / Faith? Can we find connection between BELIEF/FAITH & DOING & REWARDS? * One Big Part of Our Faith: Believing in God * Another Big Part of Our Faith: Knowing God * Faith Leads Naturally to: Loving & Obeying * The Big Result of Our Faith is: We Know God We often discuss our faith & belief as a theological concept or as if it is something that determines the style of our various “faith” systems. Are There Reasons to Think of Our “Reward” as Both Personal and Relational? The REWARD of our FAITH-DOING seems to be KNOWING FATHER like JESUS does. At its core, our FAITH may be the source of our LOVE, which, in turn is the motivational source of DOING: Or, the way WE RESPOND to the God we KNOW.

How We Walk into this New Year (of our life) With Our God of Peace? 1) REJOICE IN THE LORD 2) SHOW OFF YOUR GENTLE SPIRIT 3) ACKNOWLEDGE JESUS’ NEARNESS 4) DON’T BE ANXIOUS, PERIOD 5) PRAY SPECIFICALLY WITH THANKSGIVING 6) MAKE AN INVENTORY LIST 7) IF WE HAVE LEARNED SOMETHING, PRACTICE DOING IT TWO TAKEAWAY ASSIGNMENTS AS YOU PRAY AND REJECT ANXIETY: 1) LOOK FOR AND INVENTORY GOOD THINGS • How to think about emphasizing a “list (or practice) to do” without reactivating a non-relational, performance style pursuit of God? 2) RECOGNIZE WHAT WE LEARNED AND DO THEM • Our “practice” is not just about “the list” but also about “the things you have learned and received and heard and seen…” Let’s explore what those “things” might be?

How We Walk into this New Year (of our life)With Our God of Peace? 1) REJOICE IN THE LORD - THANKSGIVING IN EVERYTHING 2) INTENTIONALLY PRACTICE LOOKING FOR & LISTING THE GOOD GOD’S LIST OF TREASURES TO LOOK FOR & GIVE THANKS FOR... “true” things - simply “not a lie” “honorable” things – simply stuff “worthy of respect/honor, dignified, noble, serious” “right” things – simply acts or decisions that are seem “fair to all” “pure” things – simply “clean, modest or holy” words, acts, deeds or people “lovely” things – simply things that are aimed “toward friendship or friendly” relationships “good repute” – simply “well said stories, rumors, or reputations” about people or things “excellence” – simply things we respect naturally about “manliness, valor, character, civic virtue” “worthy of praise” – simply things – whether deeds or words –that provoke “lifting praise to God” RATHER THAN BEING ANXIOUS, AND WHILE WE STAY READY TO PRAY WITH THANKSGIVING, THERE IS SOMETHING TO “DO” THE GOSPEL IS OFTEN DESCRIBED AS “BELIEVING IN JESUS TO SAVE US FROM OUR SINS”.

Is it possible to be at peace and assured that we are in God’s will as we head irresistibly (or is it uncontrollably) into this coming new year, 2025? In our Joyland Community discussion, we cover: We do have a part to play, but it is God Himself who works in us to both will and do our part. We play a part in both our hope and manifesting God’s will, but our part is 100% the gift of Father, Himself being with us and us with Him in Jesus by the Spirit! In addition to literally being a component of “God’s will for us in Christ Jesus”, our very thoughts, words, and obedience of giving thanks “in everything” to Father God in Jesus by Holy Spirit is what empowers us to “stay alert in” our prayers and our praying! Thanksgiving focuses and opens our senses and heart to what God is doing around and to us. How scary can 2025 (or any year) be if you KNOW God Himself will be with you?

Is it possible to be at peace and assured that we are in God’s will as we head irresistibly (or is it uncontrollably) into this coming new year, 2025? * We do have a part to play, but it is God Himself who works in us to both will and do our part. We play a part in both our hope and manifesting God’s will, but our part is 100% the gift of Father, Himself being with us and us with Him in Jesus by the Spirit! * What is the Power of Thanksgiving as We Pray? In addition to literally being a component of “God’s will for us in Christ Jesus”, our very thoughts, words, and obedience of giving thanks “in everything” to Father God in Jesus by Holy Spirit is what empowers us to “stay alert in” our prayers and our praying!

As we finish up this series on "Community", the JOYLAND Community examines how The Father has revealed to us that we have always been a part of community, and it is our awareness of this truth that brings it to reality. In the spirit of Christmas, we revelated on the inclusion of all and the parts that each played as they were invited into the partaking of Jesus's birth.

ROMANS 12:4-5 N.T. WRIGHT: THE KINGDOM NEW TESTAMENT 4 As in one body we have many limbs and organs, you see, and all the parts have different functions, 5 so we, many as we are, are one body in the Messiah, and individually we belong to one another. * Community is the home where we (as little children of our Father) grow up into sons and daughters learning and doing His will. * What does it mean to you when you hear, “…individually members one of another"? ** What might we discover if we take this a bit more literally? “How do we think about our relationship with each other?” As a duty, a revelation, an opportunity, an honor? * “We are not ourselves by ourselves. We are ourselves only in community.” – Eugene Peterson, Christ Plays in Ten Thousand Places, 2005. (Are we each a revelation of one another’s identity?) * "Next to the Blessed Sacrament itself, your neighbor is the holiest object presented to your senses." – C.S. Lewis, The Weight of Glory, 1941 (An encounter with God’s Image? A holy honor?) * "When we step into God’s light, we walk with others who are stepping into that same light." – George MacDonald --Unspoken Sermons, 1867–1889. (An opportunity forward into faith?) 1 Cor 12:12b …the “members”… though they are many, are one body, so also is Christ.

ROMANS 8:19: 19 Yes: creation itself is on tiptoe with expectation, eagerly awaiting the moment when God’s children will be revealed. ~ N.T. WRIGHT: THE KINGDOM NEW TESTAMENT LUKE 13:34: 34 “Jerusalem, Jerusalem! You kill the prophets and stone the people sent to you! How many times did I want to collect your children, like a hen gathers her brood under her wings, and you would have none of it! ~ N.T. WRIGHT: THE KINGDOM NEW TESTAMENT * Living in & from community is God’s “good, acceptable and perfect.” * Community is the home where we (as little children of our Father) grow up into sons and daughters doing Kingdom work. 22 The glory which You have given Me I have given to them, that they may be one, just as We are one; 23 I in them and You in Me, that they may be perfected in unity, so that the world may know that You sent Me, and loved them, even as You have loved Me.” ~ John 17:22-23 * Practicing love for one-another in Community, makes what we offer the world around us effective. * Think of living from community alongside and into the world. Join the JOYLAND Community for this wonderful and most important topic as we discuss: “How best can we give ourselves to this call?” How healthy can a community be, living from our identities as Father’s much-loved children and as Jesus’ co-heirs and “full-stature” mature Sons?

ROMANS 15:13 NASU: 13 Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that you will abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. Secular Definitions of ‘hope’: (from Oxford Languages Dictionary) 1a. a feeling of expectation and desire for a certain thing to happen 1b. a person or thing that may help or save someone 1c. grounds for believing something good may happen Biblical Definitions of ‘hope’: (from Old and New Testament words/usage) OT usages: to wait, to hope, to expect, to be bound to (frequently in or to YHWH Himself) NT usages: favorable & confident expectation, to trust, look forward with assurance (related to faith—linked with Joy and Peace—God is the God of Hope) Romans 5:1-6 – Hope is woven inextricably into all this: 1 Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, 2 through whom also we have obtained our introduction by faith into this grace in which we stand; and we exult (NT:2744 [kauchaomai] = boast, vaunt, rejoice) in hope of the glory of God. 3 And not only this, but we also exult in our tribulations, knowing that tribulation brings about perseverance; 4 and perseverance, proven character; and proven character, hope; 5 and hope does not disappoint (NT:2617 [kataischuno] = shame down, put to the blush, dishonor) , because the love of God has been poured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us. 6 For while we were still helpless, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly. HOPE is part of: Peace with God – Faith into Grace – Boasting in God’s Glory – Boasting in Our Tribulation –Growing Perseverance – Proven Character – Resistance to Disappointment –God’s own LOVE (showing up in my heart!) – Steady, Consistent Hope in God Himself (Father, Son-Savior, and our Indwelling and Empowering Holy Spirit) All while we started out as helpless!
