Episode notes

We conclude our Emotions: Navigating Our Feelings with Biblical Truth series by looking at one emotion everyone longs for - joy. I

n Ecclesiastes 2, King Solomon shares his search for fulfillment. He experienced pleasure, success, wealth, relationships, and achievement, yet without God it all felt empty - “vanity.”

This message explores:

• Why pleasure and laughter cannot produce lasting joy

• How success and achievement fail to satisfy the heart

• The danger of finding identity in what we do instead of who God is

• The truth that real joy comes from a relationship with Christ Solomon’s journey reminds us that the joy we seek cannot be found within ourselves or in this world - it is found in God alone.
