(Sermon) December 17, 2023 — Rejoice ALWAYS!

In his letter to the Christians in Thessalonica, Paul tells us to "Rejoice always," and "Give thanks in all circumstances." Is that even possible? We all have circumstances in our lives that make "rejoicing always" seem like a ridiculous concept. But Paul assures us that we truly can rejoice always, because the source of our joy isn't found in the daily circumstances of our lives, but in an unchanging, unshakeable reality that is outside of our circumstances!
