About this Episode

Welcome back to Stay True Podcast! Today, Madi and Grant are joined by Grammy-nominated artist, pastor, and friend Tauren Wells for a powerful conversation all about finding true joy in Christ. Many of us have wondered and asked the questions, "Does God want me to be happy?" And "Will I ever be happy again?" In this podcast we will answer those questions and talk about what it means to experience, receive, and live with REAL joy– not a feeling based on emotions, but a deep, unshakable confidence in who God is. In a world that promises happiness in success, fame, and followers, how do we root ourselves in joy that doesn't fade when circumstances change? This episode will leave you encouraged and full of hope.

Always stay you and stay true!

Questions/topics discussed and answered: - What is true joy and where does it come from? - How to have joy in a hopeless situation - The difference between happiness and joy - Does God care about our happiness? AND SO MUCH MORE!
