Bearing the Fruit of Joy

The second fruit of the Holy Spirit listed in Galatians 5:22 is joy. God’s word testifies that He wants us to be full of joy. The question is how do we live out this joy and what can choke it out in our lives. Lessons from a recent shooting, the lives of the Pharisees, and an Old Testament King give us wisdom as to how we can live out God’s will for our lives in this area.
