JOY: A Sabbatical Summer Sermon Series

Join Immanuel as we explore JOY in scripture this summer!

Just as Pastor Katie’s sabbatical summer will be focused on exploring joy, so we too will dive in to wonder together: What is joy, what does scripture say about it, and how can we practice it as Christians? Joy can even coexist with sorrow, and can be found in surprising places.

Pastor Aaron will kick off our Joy series beginning on June 12 (the day of Pastor Katie’s sabbatical send-off), and the series will continue as we learn with these amazing preachers and teachers:
