Pastor Jentezen Franklin explains how Christmas offers lasting joy beyond seasonal happiness, revealing how divine hope helps control anxiety and fear.
Pastor Jentezen Franklin is the senior pastor of Free Chapel, a multi-campus church, and the founder of Jentezen Franklin Media Ministries. Each week, his television program, "Kingdom Connection," is broadcast on major networks all over the world. He is also a New York Times best-selling author of several books.
Joy came wrapped in swaddling clothes and lying in a manger. Joy has a name.
For thousands of years, Christian believers have held on to this truth. Joy arrived — not the kind that fades the moment the decorations come down, but a deep, unshakable, God-given joy that rests on the reality of a Savior who came to forgive, rescue, and redeem. That’s the message at the center of Christmas. It speaks with surprising clarity into a world desperate for something steady.
