Join Dr. Joy as we walk through the first three chapters of John and discover the beautiful truth of God's love for us! From Jesus being revealed as the Word made flesh, to His first miracle at the wedding in Cana, to His powerful conversation with Nicodemus about being born again, these chapters remind us of who Jesus is and why He came.

Join Dr. Joy as we begin an exciting journey through the Gospel of John in the Joytime Online Bible Study! This podcast was recorded in Coeburn, VA on our last Joytime Bible Study on the Road for 2026. In this introductory episode, we'll discover what makes John's Gospel so unique, learn about the man God inspired to write it, and get a glimpse of the incredible stories and life-changing truths waiting for us in this beautiful book of the Bible. When Jesus invited His first disciples to follow Him, He simply said, "Come and see." That same invitation is for us today! So grab your Bible and join us as we come and see more of who Jesus is and how knowing Him changes everything!

In Luke 22–24, we walk through some of the most powerful moments in all of Scripture—from the Last Supper and the crucifixion to the empty tomb and the risen Jesus! But through it all, we see an important reminder: when God is at work, we should expect the supernatural. The disciples had heard what Jesus said, yet when the impossible happened, they still struggled to believe it. How often do we do the same? Join Dr. Joy as we finish the Gospel of Luke and talk about what it looks like to trust God beyond what we can see, believe what He has said, and live with a heart that expects Him to do what only He can do.

Join Dr. Joy Greene of Joytime Ministries as we continue through the Gospel of Luke and follow Jesus during the final days leading up to the cross. In Luke 19–21, we meet Zachaeus, witness Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem, watch Him cleanse the temple, and hear His powerful teachings about faithfulness, surrender, and being ready for what is to come. Along the way, Dr. Joy shares biblical background, historical context, and practical truths that help us see these passages with fresh eyes. We'll discover what it means to truly seek Jesus, recognize Him as King, give God our whole heart, and remain faithful when the world around us feels uncertain. Grab your Bible and join us as we grow in our faith, deepen our understanding of God's Word, and discover the hope and joy found in Jesus. Find joy. Share hope. Trust God.

Join Dr. Joy Greene of Joytime Ministries as we continue through the Gospel of Luke and discover what Jesus teaches us about the way we live, pray, forgive, and trust God. In Luke 16–18, Jesus challenges us to be faithful with what God has given us, reminds us of the importance of forgiveness, shows us the power of gratitude through the ten lepers, and teaches us to pray without giving up. We also meet the humble tax collector, the rich young ruler, and a blind beggar who refused to stop calling out to Jesus. Along the way, Dr. Joy shares biblical background, historical context, and practical truths that bring these passages into our everyday lives. We'll talk about humility, persistent faith, gratitude, surrender, and what it really looks like to follow Jesus with our whole heart. Grab your Bible and join us as we grow in our faith, deepen our understanding of God's Word, and discover the hope and joy found in Jesus.

What does Jesus want us to understand about the heart of God? In Luke 13-15, we see His compassion for people, His call to repentance, and His deep desire for the lost to be found. Join Dr. Joy as we walk through three powerful chapters filled with Jesus' teaching and some of His most beloved parables. We'll talk about the narrow door, taking the lowest seat, the cost of following Jesus, and the beautiful stories of the Lost Sheep, the Lost Coin, and the Prodigal Son. Through it all, one message becomes beautifully clear: every person matters to God. He sees the one who is hurting, He seeks the one who has wandered, and heaven rejoices when the lost come home. My friend, whether you've known Jesus for years or you need the reminder that you are seen and loved by Him, there is encouragement waiting for you in Luke 13-15.

Join Dr. Joy for a hope-filled study through Luke chapters 10–12, where Jesus teaches us what it looks like to love others, sit at His feet, pray with persistence, trust God with our worries, and live with an eternal perspective. We'll revisit the Good Samaritan, step into the home of Mary and Martha, learn from Jesus about prayer and worry, and consider the sobering story of the rich fool who built bigger barns but wasn't rich toward God. These chapters remind us that following Jesus isn't just about what we know...it changes how we love, how we pray, what we treasure, and how we live each day. 🩵🌼 Grab your Bible and join Dr. Joy as we continue our journey through the Gospel of Luke together!
