Do you want to learn how to count it all joy, no matter the struggles, tests, and difficulties of life? Well, you can, through the Word of God and the peace of the Holy Spirit. I feel this book will offer and reveal practical use and common understanding through the application of scripture, coupled with the challenges of everyday life.
Joy is one of the most important commodities and gifts that Jesus promised His people. This was one of the main reasons why I feel the Holy Spirit urged me to write this book. I felt so inspired and even mandated by the Holy Spirit to release the promise that joy is not limited by life's inconsistencies, but that the true joy of the Lord will help you to accomplish incredible and great things for God, all while navigating and processing the responsibility of a very demanding life.
The truth is, we all face various struggles that can push us to new limits that we never previously faced. The challenges of life can be very overwhelming at times, but counting it all joy can bring order to the chaos in our lives. Christians are not immune to feelings of frustrations. Sadly, it has seemingly become the new normal. But when you can count it all joy, it becomes a game changer. I pray this book will be as much a blessing to you as it was for me to write.

“You were created on purpose, with purpose.” “You were born because God had a need, and you were the one He created to fulfill that assignment.” “Joy not only brings strength and confidence in our lives, but joy glorifies the Father.” Great!!!!!
This book, written by my pastor, felt like a homecoming sermon. Full of the word, encouragement and wisdom. Mixed with some life experience and light hearted moments. 10/10 for me Pappy!
