Welcome to the weekly podcast of Church At The Bridge in Orange County, NY. Listen to sermons from Pastor Jose Vasquez that will encourage you and help you embrace freedom and hope in Jesus! Visit us at Ctbny.com.
You don’t have to have your entire life figured out to live with purpose. As we close The Happy Life on Pastor Appreciation Sunday, we look at the lives of Pastors Jose and Annette and the faithfulness that has shaped their journey. Their story reminds us that calling doesn’t mean there won’t be unexpected turns, mistakes, changes, or seasons we never planned for. The question isn’t whether you know exactly where your life will be ten years from now, the question is whether your life is continually being submitted to God. Through 2 Timothy 1:9, Psalm 37:23–24, Proverbs 3:1–6, and Hebrews 12:1–2, we discover how to find our heading, recognize whether we’re moving in the right direction, and keep Jesus as our true north when life tries to push us off course.

Week 5: The Architecture of Authentic Joy
What happens to your joy when life doesn't go according to plan? In Habakkuk 3:17–18, the prophet describes a season where the crops fail, the fields are empty, and everything around him seems to be falling apart, yet he makes a powerful declaration: “I will rejoice in the Lord.” In this message, Pastor Marcus Gill reminds us that authentic joy cannot be built on circumstances that constantly change. Lasting joy is built on the truth of God's Word, strengthened through trusting Him, and protected through gratitude and godly relationships. You may not be able to control what's happening around you, but when your joy is rooted in God, life can shake you without destroying your foundation. Joy that is built on God doesn't fall apart when life does.

Week 4: Come Out of Your Shade
In the final part of The Happy Life, we look at Jonah and discover that sometimes the greatest thing standing between us and the joy God has for us isn’t our circumstances; it’s the “shade” we’ve created ourselves. Bitterness, resentment, unforgiveness, judgment, pride, and the need to be right can feel like protection, but eventually they begin to blind and restrict us. Jonah watched an entire city turn toward God, yet he was too consumed with anger to celebrate what God was doing. This message challenges us to examine what we’re holding onto, step out of our own shade, release what has kept us stuck, and choose the light, grace, restoration, and joy God is offering.
