In this anthology, more than thirty Christian writers tackle this question in poems, allegories, and short stories. Is joy a feeling? A state of the heart? A person? Can it coexist with heartache? Can it be found in a new baby? In having the best possessions money can buy? In finding the right relationships?
Come with us and get to know a wide array of characters who encounter joy in their lives and learn to find it in unexpected places. What lessons might we learn from a packet of sunflower seeds? Can an unloved, lost dog find a home? Is there any joy in the loss of a loved one? Does it shine in the midst of a war? Can an overworked family on vacation locate joy in daily life? Can an unappreciated relative discover a place to belong? Can a crippled girl be seen as more than a pair of crutches?
More than anything, however, this collection recognizes the real source of joy that can be found on earth: in our Lord and Savior Jesus and in His mercies to those He loves. Join us on this exploration--and perhaps you’ll discover a deeper and richer reality of joy in your own journey.”
