Category: Joy

Christian joy is deeper than happiness: a gladness in God that can sing even in sorrow. These quotes, many from writers who knew suffering well, point to the joy that is found in Christ and will be full in his presence. C.S. Lewis, Augustine, J.C. Ryle and Charles Spurgeon are quoted most often here.
