Joy in the Upper Room

John Huffman

Description

John Huffman reflects on Jesus’ final night with His disciples, showing that the joy believers cling to in suffering was first rooted in Christ’s own joy amid sorrow. Preaching from John 13–17, he explains that this joy flows from humility, fellowship, love, persecution, and ultimately glory. Jesus washed even Judas’ feet, showing joy in humble service; He promised abiding fellowship and love that leads to full joy; He prepared His disciples for persecution by assuring them that their sorrow would turn to joy; and He prayed that His joy would be fulfilled in them. Huffman emphasizes that this joy is Christ’s own joy shared with His people—deeper than circumstances, unshakable by the world, and secured by His victory on the cross—calling listeners to embrace it as the strength to endure and the foretaste of eternal glory.
