#224: "joy." by For King and Country
Manage episode 207492146 series 1080637
Major decisions in life often determine our final destination. But what about our daily choices, like the attitudes we choose? For King and Country challenges us all in their song "joy." to choose joy in the midst of trials. Of course, they didn't come up with that on their own...it's all over Scripture.
Let's consider what God's Word has to say on the matter on a journey from James to the Psalms to Romans.
