In this edition of UBC "Sermon Discussions" Jason Wing discusses questions related to Sunday’s Sermon out of Psalm 16:1-11.

The main idea for the sermon was: True Joy Is Found In Christ That Came and Is Coming Again

Questions discussed in this episode:
Q. You decided to cancel the in-person services this past weekend. Couple questions about that: 1) Tell us how the church came to that decision. 2) You recorded your sermon from home and then uploaded it. What was that like?

Q. Psalm 16 talks a lot about joy, gladness, etc. However, there’s also that strange section in vs 4 about drink offerings of blood. Can you explain what is being talked about there?

Q. In your sermon, you defined joy as “a God-given gladness of the heart that exists despite your circumstances.” Let’s talk about that definition a bit. How does joy relate to happiness? Since joy is God-given, can a non-believer have it? If joy comes from God, can a believer do anything to pursue it or help experience it in their life… or do we just have to wait for God to give it? I’m thinking of those people who really want joy, but struggle to have it.
