About this episode
When life hits hard, through injuries, setbacks, guilt, or pressure, how do you hold onto joy that doesn’t shake? In this episode of Built 4 More, Pastor Joby Martin and Denny Thompson break down the difference between happiness and lasting joy, and how it’s possible to walk through trials with peace, purpose, and resilience. They unpack what true discipleship looks like in everyday life, how generosity brings freedom, and why the people you surround yourself with can either drain you or help carry you. Through lessons from the NFL, their own families, and honest conversations about comparison, leadership, and pain, this episode is a reminder that real joy doesn’t come from what you have, but who you're anchored to. If you’ve ever asked, “How do I find joy when life falls apart?”, this one’s for you.
