James 1:2–4 - AIT - "Joy That Outlasts the Trial"

"Count it all joy" isn't a command to fake happiness or bury your grief. James is asking you to consider your trials through God's purpose, trusting He's making you whole inside the pain, not pretending it doesn't hurt. An honest word for anyone worn thin. With the original song "Made Whole in the Waiting."

About the Podcast

Be Still and Know

“Be still, and know that I am God.” — Psalm 46:10
Scripture, taught slowly and without rush. Be Still offers full expository sermons that walk carefully through the text, plus shorter midweek episodes to steady your week. Named for the verse my grandmother held close all her life — and offered now as a place to stop, listen, and remember who God is.
In a loud and hurried world, come and be still.

About your host

Jeff Stoner

I'm Jeff — the heart behind Be Still and Know. This show started from a simple desire: to slow down and actually sit with God's Word, without the rush. It's named for Psalm 46:10, my grandmother's favorite verse — "Be still, and know that I am God." Every episode, I try to walk through Scripture honestly and carefully, paired with original songs, as a place for you to pause in the middle of a noisy week and be reminded of who God is. I'm glad you're here.
