Not all of life's situations are happy ones, and it becomes easy to seek instant gratification rather than pursue godly joy as the Bible commands. In Pure Joy, best-selling author R. T. Kendall explains why you have the right to the pursuit of joy and where to find these promises in God's Word. Beginning with the joy of forgiveness of sins and ending with the promise of heaven, Kendall expounds on this often overlooked topic and notes four kinds of joy: joy by faith (attained through trusting God during trials), joy via the witness of the Holy Spirit, the joy of knowing that you please the Lord, and the joy of being in heaven with your heavenly Father. No matter what your circumstance, God's gift of inward joy is available for you to experience here on earth!
