In this Advent episode on Joy, Joni addresses the quiet numbness many of us carry when disappointment has made joy feel unsafe or undeserved. Through Scripture and honest reflection, she reveals that joy is not about pretending everything is fine, but about trusting God's presence and delighting even in the midst of what still hurts.

This episode invites listeners to believe what God believes: that joy is not earned, but received as a gift from a God who delights in His children.
