Episode 478: Joy | Pastor Verna DeHart

Soul Harvest Worship Center

True joy isn’t found in gifts, decorations, or holiday cheer—it’s found in the Savior!

In this powerful Christmas sermon, Pastor Verna DeHart unpacks the profound biblical concept of joy—revealing that joy is not just a fleeting emotion tied to circumstances but a deep, unshakable strength that comes from knowing God as our Savior. Drawing from Scriptures in Isaiah, Luke, and 1 Peter, she shows us that true joy is the unending fruit of salvation and the presence of God in our lives.
While the world celebrates Christmas with temporary happiness, the joy God gives us is eternal. Pastor Verna explores the meaning of the Savior’s birth and why it’s not just a reason for seasonal happiness, but the foundation for everlasting joy.
As we dive into the scriptures, Pastor Verna reveals how God’s rescue mission through Jesus brings joy even in the midst of suffering and trials, and how that joy strengthens us, sustains us, and overflows into worldwide praise. Know Jesus, know joy. No Jesus, no joy.
