Do you find joy in your relationship with others? Welcome to the Parable Podcast, today I would love to share one of my recent messages from our home church as we take a little holiday break here at the Parable Podcast.
First, let me say thank you! When you have so many options to choose from, thank you so much for being a listener. 2023 has been a great year and I have been so encouraged by all of these stories. Please enjoy this message wherever it may find you today.
What happens if joy is not separate from pain? What if joy and pain are fundamentally tangled up with one another? Or even more to the point, what if joy is not only entangled with pain or suffering, or sorrow, but is also what emerges from how we care for each other through those things? What if joy, instead of refuge or relief from heartbreak, is what [bursts forth] from us as we help each other carry our heartbreaks? - Inciting Joy by Ross Gay
