Episode 265. Finding True Joy When Life Still Feels Hard
Oct 26, 2026

You pray every day. You're trying so hard to stay positive. And you still feel anxious at work, moody by the time you get home, and quietly wondering what you're doing wrong spiritually.
This week I'm answering a listener question about finding joy when life still feels hard. We talk about the difference between happiness and joy, why your emotions were never meant to measure your relationship with God, and one small thing to try at the end of each day that isn't a gratitude list.
