"Filled With Joy" // Acts // Jason Hatch

About this episode

Pastor Jason Hatch reflects on the joys and sorrows of Mother's Day while exploring Acts 13 and the enduring joy found in Jesus and the Holy Spirit.

On this Mother's Day, Pastor reflects on the joys and sorrows of the day while diving into Acts 13, where Paul and Barnabas preach the gospel in Antioch of Pisidia. The response is powerful: crowds beg to hear more, the whole city gathers, and many Gentiles rejoice and believe—while others react with jealousy and persecution. The core message is that true, resilient joy is found only in Jesus and the Holy Spirit, not in changing circumstances, as echoed in the lives of Augustine and C.S. Lewis. This sermon reminds us that the gospel brings deep, enduring joy that the world desperately seeks, turning ordinary people into bold witnesses.
