  • The Joy of Pain - Part 11: The Eternal Joy
    Oct 14 2025

    Pastor Jeffrey concludes our 11 week series The Joy of Pain with this week's message: The Eternal Joy. We are encouraged to hope in the knowledge of the eternal reality of joy in spite of present circumstances. The source of eternal joy is the very presence of God. "The joy of pain is not that pain is easy, but that pain does not win. The joy of pain is not that suffering disappears, but that suffering does not last. The joy of pain is not that sorrow avoids you, but that sorrow cannot hold you."
