Joy is one of God's greatest gifts, yet it is often the first thing we lose when life grows heavy. Worry presses in. Weariness slows us down. Disappointment whispers that hope is small, and slowly the brightness in our hearts begins to dim. Many people walk through life unaware that their joy has faded. They feel weaker, more burdened, and unsure why the world feels less alive.
Joyful Kingdom was written as a journey back to the joy we were created to carry. Through the adventures of Jori and Pip, we see the subtle ways joy can be drained and the powerful ways God brings it back. Their path through enchanted forests, shadowed valleys, and wondrous lands mirrors our own spiritual walk. The story shows that joy is not fragile or shallow. It is a strength God places within us, a truth that darkness cannot silence.
This book invites every reader to remember what joy feels like, to fight for it, and to discover again the deep, unshakable joy that comes from the presence of the Lord. When the joy of Merrymirth disappears, two young jesters embark on a perilous quest to restore God's light, discovering that true joy carries divine strength.
