Heartstrings

Finding a Song When You’ve Lost Your Joy

Have you lost your joy? Life’s obstacles and disappointments can tempt Christians to lose hope and hang up their joy, just as the Israelites hung their harps upon trees by the rivers of Babylon. In Heartstrings, Jill Briscoe discusses eight “trees” that believers hang their joy upon, including grief, grudge and gloom. Through biblical stories and personal narrative, Jill reminds us that hope and joy can be regained when we allow the Lord to touch the heartstrings of our souls. Once this happens, we are able to sing a new song to God and the world.
