ABOUT THIS MESSAGE: What if the secret to indestructible joy is getting over yourself? In John 3, John the Baptist says it plainly: "He must increase, but I must decrease." True joy isn't found by exalting self, it's found in exalting Jesus. ABOUT THE HEIGHTS CHURCH: We are a church making disciples of Jesus for the renewal of Denver.

Following Jesus is sometimes presented as the easy road, a path of safety and happiness. Read the New Testament, and you'll see a much different story: following Jesus is a narrow road that is often marked by pain and persecution. On the night before Jesus was crucified, Jesus gathered with his disciples for the Passover meal so he could prepare them for what was to come. In the face of suffering and death, Jesus said, Do not let your hearts be troubled (John 14:1), and in the following four chapters he taught his disciples how to trust and abide in Him when life hurts the most. Every Sunday in March we will be encouraged by Jesus' words as he teaches us how to remain in him.

At a wedding with no wine and hearts running on empty, Jesus steps in. Pastor Jeff Schreve shows how the first miracle at Cana reveals a Savior who cares about your everyday problems, fills emptiness to the brim, and turns shame into joy when we do what He says.
John 16:12-24. From the "Gospel of John - Part II" sermon series. Preached by Stephen Baker.
Sorrow will come, but joy is on the way. We will have sorrow in this world, but God will turn it to joy.

In this Advent Series, week 3, our big truth is that when I am small, and Jesus is large, my Joy is huge. John gives us a pattern for how this can increase Joy in our lives. Our Joy will increase when we see that we have everything because of grace. Anything that we have in our lives that is a good gift from God is just that! It is God's grace to us. Our Joy increases when we have a specific role from God, just as John the Baptist knew he had a particular role within the kingdom, to pave the way for Jesus as a fulfillment of prophecy. When you can realize & be confident that you are precisely where God has you, that brings freedom & Joy! Lastly, our Joy will increase when we know that we are not the main point. We are just here to point people to the groom - JESUS. He must increase, and I must decrease!As we learn to live, we must measure our Joy by how much we love Christ, not by comparing with others. How can you make Christ big in the specific context he has called YOU this week? This sermon is from 12/21/2025
Sometimes it doesn’t feel like Christmas “should feel.” Sometimes there is no joy. Jesus knows. He has been there. The post Jesus identifies when there is no joy (John 6:60-67; John 11:32-35) appeared first on PLEASANT HILL COMMUNITY CHURCH.

4. Only Children Feast on Joy (John 15:12-17) by Church in the Square (Sermon Audio)
Speaker: Nate HoldridgeText: John 15:1-16:4Overview: In this sermon from Calvary Monterey, Pastor Nate Holdridge examines John 15 to reveal the blueprint for a life of full and lasting joy. Jesus teaches that this joy is not a feeling we chase but the result of cultivating three essential relationships: an upward relationship of abiding in Him, an inward relationship of loving His people, and an outward relationship of resilient witness to the world. This teaching provides a clear and practical diagnostic for our spiritual health, inviting us to find our ultimate satisfaction in our connection to Christ and His body.Link to Discussion Questions

FROM SORROW TO JOY John 16:16-33 I. Jesus Speaks of His Departure; vs.16-20 II. Jesus Promises Joy; vs.21-24 III. Jesus Speaks of The Father; vs.25-32 IV. Jesus Offers Peace; vs.33 Jesus announces sad news and glad news to his disciples. They are told He will be leaving. They are told sorrow will fill their heart. They are then assured joy will come when they see him again.

Joy is not an accident. It's a fruit of the Spirit that grows from attention, action, and cultivation. In contrast much of our online lives are lived passively comparing ourselves to others without even thinking about it. Algorithms are designed to keep us longing for what we don't have, by showing us lives just out of reach. This is an upward envy that creates a downward disdain and erodes joy. But God life with God gives us the good work of Joy. Joy is deep, personal, and often tied to the relationships that reflect God's love and goodness.Become New is here to help you grow spiritually one day at a time.

It is time this very minute to pray and seek God. Time to set our timers and pray for the minute. This podcast encourages us to stop for a minute and, now, in the presence of our Heavenly Father—with praise and prayer—worship Him in Jesus' name and in the power of the Holy Spirit. ———— *We do not own the rights to music played on this podcast.
We search in many places, but only Jesus satisfies our thirst for joy.

With Christmas in the rear view mirror, we have a New Year and 2025 on the horizon; the disciples were similarly heading into a season of life where they had no clue what was in store for them. All they had were the words and promises of Jesus to cling to, to prepare their hearts for what lies ahead. The same is true for us. But with that in mind I want to ask you a question to help shape our time together: How does the reality that the God of the universe loves you, shape the way you live or want to live in this New Year?
So Much More: Creating Space for God (Lectio Divina and Scripture Meditation)
The fourth week of Advent invites us to reflect on joy—true joy—and how we experience it. Get your FREE Unhurried Advent Guide here. This 25-day guide is filled with Scripture meditations, devotional readings with reflective questions, and contemplative imagery—all designed to help you slow down and savor the Advent season. Created in collaboration with Unhurried Living, a ministry I'm confident you'll love. Joy is the focus of this final week of Advent.What I love about joy is that it weaves through all the themes of Advent: We have joy because Jesus is our sure hope. We have joy because Jesus is the Prince of Peace. We have joy because God is love, and Jesus reveals this to us. At the heart of it all, we have joy because of Jesus—our Savior, who came to us that first Christmas morning. In this meditation, we'll explore how we can know more joy.John 15:9-12 ties joy to a somewhat surprising source—obedience and love. Jesus tells us that true, overflowing joy comes when we follow his command to love one another as he has loved us. As you meditate on this passage, may you rest in God's love for you and discover the deep, overflowing joy that comes from loving as Jesus loves. Get your FREE Unhurried Advent Guide here.
