Why Are You Crying? | Finding Joy In Jesus

Apr 21, 2024    Matthew Balentine

Join us for a powerful sermon titled "Why Are You Crying? Finding Joy in Jesus" at Ninth Avenue Church in Haleyville, Alabama. This uplifting message delves into the profound impact of John chapter 20, where Jesus asks Mary Magdalene, "Why are you crying?" This question challenges us to redirect our focus from our grief and struggles to the hope and joy found in Jesus.


In this sermon, we explore how Jesus transforms our moments of despair into opportunities for spiritual growth and unity. Through Mary's story, we see a testament to the truth that God fulfills His promises. Just as Mary discovered, the battle belongs to the Lord, and He is always there to guide us through our darkest moments.


Discover how these teachings can apply to our daily lives, encouraging us to lift our eyes and see Jesus, recognizing that true comfort, healing, and purpose come from Him. This message serves as a reminder of the importance of faith, patience, and obedience in our spiritual journey.
