He explores the call to rejoice, urging it not simply as an emotion but as a defense—a safeguard, standing firm against those who would reduce grace to mere rule-following. These verses are more than an appeal; they’re a resistance against any who would burden the Gentiles with the weight of old customs. Pastor Mark challenges us to recognize joy as not only a gift but a shield, one that defends the heart from subtle pressures to distort the Gospel’s freedom. <a rel="payment" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/11123/support">Support the show</a>The Village Church&apos;s sermon podcast is a weekly source of inspiration and guidance for the community.
