Why We've Lost Our Joy (And Where To Find It)

For some reason, we inherently believe that joy is a byproduct of success. Yet, we finish the project, celebrate for five minutes, and move on to the next thing, waking up one day confused as to why the joy didn't seem to follow.In this episode, Dr. Josh shares why so many leaders and parents lose joy, and what joy really is: not a feeling or a byproduct of success, but a present-tense experience rooted in our trust in God. Where happiness depends on circumstances; joy depends on position.Here are some takeaways and highlights: 

• Ask: does my family experience me as proud of what they do, or delighted that they exist?
• Screens keep us in the left brain. Relational joy lives in the right brain.
• Gratitude has to be experienced, not just listed.
• Your calendar is discipling you. What is it teaching you about joy?
• How and why God scheduled joy.
