{"product_id":"the-theology-of-joy-volume-1","title":"The Theology of Joy, Volume 1","description":"The Theology of Joy, Volume 1: From Eden to Return — Happiness in God in the Old Testament\nby Todd Wallace\n\nJoy is not the opposite of happiness. Joy IS happiness — specifically, happiness in God.\n\nHappiness in circumstances is fragile. Happiness in God endures because God endures.\n\nTwo corrections change everything:\n1. JOY IS HAPPINESS IN GOD — not happiness versus joy, but source. Hebrew asher and Greek makarios mean happy. To be blessed is to be truly happy in God.\n2. JOY BECOMES COMPLETE WHEN EXPRESSED — 1 John 1:4, 2 John 12, John 15:11. Joy travels by speaking, singing, and sharing face-to-face.\n\nThis is not a fill-in-the-blank study. This is a participatory biblical-theological study where YOU learn to do biblical theology — tracing the theme of joy as it develops from Genesis to Malachi.\n\nVolume 1 traces joy from Eden's delight to Fall's fracture to Promise's laughter to Exodus's song to Law's calendar to David's dance to Wisdom's shout to Prophets' sunrise hope.\n\nWhat you will learn to do:\n• OBSERVE: What does the text actually say about happiness?\n• LOCATE: Where in the story? Creation, Fall, Promise, Exodus, Land, King, Exile, Return?\n• TRACE: Where have we seen this joy before? Where does it point forward?\n• See CHRIST: How does Jesus fulfill, deepen, become this joy?\n• EXPRESS: How will you speak, sing, share face-to-face today to complete joy?","brand":"4HG - For His Glory","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44186681802870,"sku":"vw4ppk","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0671\/9805\/8614\/files\/je8w86p-front-shortedge-384.jpg?v=1789443770","url":"https:\/\/4hg.store\/products\/the-theology-of-joy-volume-1","provider":"4HG - For His Glory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
