As we wrap up our short series on happiness and joy we will look at getting along. If there ever were a message our country needed it is this. If you were at peace with everybody you’d be happy.

We’ve been discussing joy and the state and experience of blessing. Tonight we’re gonna focus on another way to “be blessed” and the associated hindrances.

Joy many times is not what one possesses but what one rids himself of. Suddenly, free from what keeps us down, we feel it.

We are starting a series on Joy. It’s a key component in our new found life in Christ. Tonight, we will look at the difference between happiness and the joy we are promised in Christ.
