"I did my own assessment of my Reformed experience and, I must admit, I had to agree that ‘joyful' was not one of the first adjectives that came to my mind to describe it. Then I began to contemplate why the Reformed church seems to be lacking in the joy department."
This is a statemet taken from a recent posted on Reformation 21 by Anthony Selvaggio. In the article he gives a couple of reasons why he feels that joy is lacking in many associated with the reformed faith. Then he gives a brief definition of joy and offers a remedy for joylessness.
I today's program I will speak with Anthony Selvaggio abot this article and also about one of his books (The 24/7 Christian - Practical help from the book of James) which also deals with the subject of joy in the opening chapters.
