“Sinners in the hands of an angry God” is one of the most well-known sermons of all time… but from cover to cover of Scripture, from the Garden of Eden to the marriage supper of the Lamb in Revelation, JOY is central to the Gospel. If you’re afraid or worried that God is angry with you, if you’re anxious because of God’s wrath, there’s really good news in this truth:

Scripture says that Jesus came to make manifest what has always been true about God the Father. What we see in Jesus’ life in the gospels – the way that He reaches out to people, the way He sacrificially loves and serves and seeks out the person who is lost, the way that He wept and danced and chose a wedding party for His first miracle – shows us that we have a JOYful God.
