Episode 88: Fighting for Joy During Hard Seasons

Contrary to what some in the Evangelical world would have you believe, being a Christian does not mean that we will be blessed with health, wealth, prosperity, ease, and comfort.  Although that life is possible, a simple look into the Bible, into history, and at our current world will clearly reveal that hard seasons are not uncommon in the life of the believer. As a Christian we may not always be happy with our circumstances, but we have a never ending source of joy.  But what happens when seasons of life make it hard to see and draw from that wellspring of joy?  

The author of Psalms 42 and 43 was clearly going through a hard season in his life. Join our guest speaker, Pastor Todd McClure, as he walks through five main themes found in these Psalms, that help the believer fight for joy during the hard seasons of life.
