About this episode

Bill Carson discusses the importance of seeking wisdom during trials and the difference between happiness and joy.

We often pray for an exit when we should be praying for wisdom. James tells us to consider it pure joy when we face trials because God is using the weight of our problems to build us, not break us. There are no shortcuts through grief or hardship. Happiness is an emotion, but joy is a deep contentment that God is in control even when everything feels like it is falling apart. Learn how to stay under the weight until you are transformed by it.
