What do you do when life looks full on the outside… but your soul feels empty?

In this episode of The Jesus Effect, host Steve McLane unpacks the difference between happiness that fades and the deep, lasting joy that comes only from Jesus. If you’ve been feeling dry, discouraged, or disconnected, this message is for you.

You’ll discover:

  • Why joy isn’t just an emotion — it’s a spiritual strength
  • What Jesus meant when He said, “that your joy may be full” (John 15:11)
  • How to experience joy even in trials
  • Practical ways to cultivate joy that overflows — daily
  • And why joy is essential, not optional, for every believer

Whether you're running on empty or simply needing renewal, this episode will remind you that joy isn’t found in perfect circumstances — it’s found in the presence of Christ.
