## Resource

In this week’s Advent miniseries, we reflect on joy and why it can exist even in the midst of suffering and trials. Drawing from Scripture and the Catechism, we explore the paradox of joy, our dependence on God, and the truth that the Lord never abandons or forgets His people. We look at how living in right order, staying close to Christ, and trusting in God’s sustaining presence shapes the way we walk through hardship. The episode concludes with practical ways to cultivate joy in daily life and the Litany of Joy. Resources Mentioned Litany of Joy Surrender Novena Two-part episode on Joy with Fr.
