When life hurts beneath the surface, Jesus offers a joy that goes deeper than any circumstance.

ABOUT THE MESSAGE
In Part 1 of the Joy series, Pastor Mark Stermer teaches us that many people smile on the outside while hiding deep ache on the inside. Proverbs 14:13 tells us that even in laughter the heart can hurt, and in a world full of highlight reels and lonely hearts, we desperately need a joy that goes deeper than our faces. This week, we’re discovering where real, lasting joy comes from—joy rooted in God’s presence, strengthened in biblical community, shaped by a heavenly perspective, grounded in true contentment, and anchored in the hope we have in Jesus. No matter what you’re facing, joy is possible, joy is available, and joy is found in Him.
