I have really enjoyed your podcasts and agree – lack of joy is a symptom of taking our eyes off Jesus. I have to remind myself of this often. I also heard you mention social media in a few of your podcasts. I believe that social media can really distract any one of us from all of the above. A good first step should be – get off of social media – ESPECIALLY if someone is not finding joy. I believe that SM is the cause of many joyless hearts – of course, the root comes back to taking our eyes off Jesus, then on to someone’s created illusion of life or spit second image of perfection without the reality of the seconds, minutes, and hours before and after. Our poor children have no idea how sucked into these deceptions they are, but how can we help them understand if we are sucked in too? You may have already addressed this – I haven’t listened to them all, but plan to. 🙂 Thanks again.
This is a great addition to the conversation! Thank you so much. I really think you’re right, and I feel it in my own life as I interact with social media. So true!
