Summary:
"When Jennifer Greenberg escaped her abusive childhood home at the age of twenty-one, she found that few Christians knew how to encourage her. Platitudes such as, “God won’t give you more than you can handle,” “Forgive and forget,” and “Have faith!” left her feeling misunderstood and alone. Would she ever be whole again? Could
joy
exist for someone so broken? By discarding false theology and toxic positivity, Greenberg discovered
joy
beyond anything she was taught in church:
joy
that’s a gift from God. In her new book, '
Defiant
Joy
,' Greenberg shares this groundbreaking
hope
as she explores -why philosophies like the prosperity gospel and legalism fail us - how Jesus is with us amid our sadness, disappointment, anger, and anxiety - how God’s
joy
far exceeds any emotion we can muster. God doesn't want you to pretend you're okay. Discover the freedom of living beyond performance faith. Embrace a
joy
that shines in defiance of the darknes."--Back cover.
