Advent begins here with a reminder of what joy actually is. This message invites us to consider what happens when the true King arrives and how His coming reshapes both the world around us and the places in our lives we keep trying to manage alone. “Joy to the World” isn’t merely a Christmas playlist song. It’s a proclamation of a reigning Savior, a broken curse, and a rescue that genuinely changes everything.

Isaac Watts’ 1719 hymn is a bold announcement of a Savior who confronts sin, quiets sorrows, pushes back the thorns of Genesis 3, and rules with truth and grace. It’s theologically deep, anchoring our hope in the One whose arrival continues to transform hearts, creation, and the story we’re living in.

What you will discover:
· The history of “Joy to the World” and why it was originally written.
· How singing and spiritual warfare go hand in hand (and why that matters for you).
· The surprising scope of salvation (hint: it’s bigger than you think).
· What hidden assumptions in your daily frustrations reveal about your heart and how the gospel confronts them.
· How the cross turns the birth of Jesus from an inspiring story into a world-shaking announcement.
