How do we hold on to joy when life feels overwhelming?

In today's episode, Richelle Alessi opens her heart about facing one of her family's hardest seasons and guides us through James 1:2-4, a powerful reminder to find perseverance and purpose in our trials. Together, we’ll explore what it means to trust God’s sovereignty, even when joy seems so far away, and how worship and surrender can nurture faith that endures the fire.

Let’s come together as a community for this honest and uplifting devotional, joining in prayer and devotion as we seek renewed strength and peace in every season.
