When life feels heavy, where can we find the strength to keep going?

Join us this Sunday for worship as Rev. Mary Teague shares “When Joy is Hard to Find,” inspired by Nehemiah 8:10 and 1 Peter 1:1–9. Together, we’ll discover that biblical joy isn’t the absence of hardship—it’s the quiet confidence that God remains faithful through every season. Even when life is difficult, God’s presence offers hope, strength, and a joy the world cannot take away.

👉 How has God carried you through a season when joy seemed impossible to find?

“Do not grieve, for the joy of the Lord is your strength.” — Nehemiah 8:10
