- Book Synopsis
- In a social media-driven world where we're often pressured to 'choose happiness,' 'think positive,' and put on our Instagram smile, Jennifer Michelle Greenberg offers an alternative to toxic positivity: embrace God's inexplicable joy that runs deeper, feels richer, is far more beautiful, and lasts forever. In Defiant Joy, Jennifer writes from the vantage point of her own struggles as she encourages you not to pretend to feel happy and self-confident when you're angry, sad, or overwhelmed. Instead, she demonstrates how to align your will with God's and find joy amid hardship, knowing Jesus is weeping with you and one day will wipe your tears away. Through biblical support, encouraging prose, and compelling personal stories, Jennifer debunks unrealistic and hurtful positive-thinking philosophy and guides you to a counter-cultural otherworldly joy that persists despite tragedy and evil. No matter what is weighing you down, Defiant Joy will lift you up and fix your eyes on Jesus.
