Joy Bomb

Unleash Jesus's Explosive Joy for an Extraordinary Life

De: Tauren Wells, Steven Furtick - foreword

Read by the author.

You were wired for joy. Not put-a-fake-smile-on-it joy. Not I-feel-guilty-about-being-sad joy. But deep-down, laugh-out-loud, overflowing joy that thrives no matter your personality or circumstances.

It's time to take your joy back! Maybe you're wondering why life has to be so confusing. Maybe you're tired of feeling anxious. Maybe you're just blah lately. Bible teacher, songwriter, and one of Christian music's most contagiously joyful voices, Pastor Tauren Wells has a powerful reminder for you: Jesus' first message was about how to be truly happy. Think about it: How important to the heart of God must your joy be if Jesus uses the word "happy" eight times in his first recorded sermon on planet Earth (aka: the Beatitudes)?

In Joy Bomb, Pastor Tauren helps us embrace the truth that God's greatest longing is not only for our holiness, but for our happiness. This biblically rooted, exuberantly hope-filled book walks us through:

• Eight life-changing ways to reorient our lives toward joy
• Understanding why joy is not dependent on our emotional state or the state of the world
• What attitudes or behaviors keep us from experiencing God's joy
• How we can become freer in worship, life, and our relationship with God
• Why Jesus' ways of living don't just create warm fuzzies but create joy deep within us

We find more in this life than we ever imagined when we understand the patterns and promises of God's kingdom. More fulfillment, more purpose, more satisfaction—and radical joy.

Step on a Joy Bomb!

It’s a new fresh look at the Fruit of the Spirit, Joy. Every chapter gave me a new angle to consider and led me to dive deeper into this spiritual force called Joy. I’m so appreciative as I discovered - certainly with the Holy Spirit leading - Taurean’s book at precisely the moment I needed it…in the middle of a heartbreak from church friends, and literally a few steps away from God bringing me our heart’s desires! It’s a classic move the enemy uses to keep us from our destinies and using the examples and the truths in this book, we will overcome and move forward into ALL that God has planned for us! Thank you SO much for introducing me to the concept of Joy Bombs! ❤️

Lasting joy will only be found in Jesus!

God‘s word is living! True joy, lasting joy is found in Jesus. Everything else is temporary the things you purchase the momentary highs they’re all fleeting.. God’s word God’s promises God’s love or lasting and that is where we will find true pure joy that is where the joy bombs are found and lit!

Enlightenment on the beatitudes!

This book was reviving to my spirit. I love the bullet points of the beatitudes. The author conveyed in a way that I can truly understand. I have learned to be attitudes before, but this gave me a different light on it. I love the life experience he connected with Jesus teaching. The icing on the cake is the last few minutes” after the credits” how the author points the whole book to Jesus. I will read this again.. thank you Mr. Wells. May God continue blessing you and your family.

My New Christian Therapist is Tauren Wells

On May 18, 2025, Tauren preached a powerful message on “Allow Joy to Reintroduce Himself” at Joel Osteen’s Lakewood Church and he talked about this book. I am 1 hour and 40 minutes into this audio book and let me be the first to say: “I am Hooked!”
I purchased the hard copy and the work book because I need the amazing insights and the awesome wisdom and deep understanding that Tauren shares of how to cultivate authentic, genuine, lasting and real JOY; for a Favor filled faithful life in following Jesus Christ and walking through the storms of life. I’m so proud of you, Tauren. Look what the Lord has done! I love Tauren’s heart felt music and now I have these transforming truths directly from the Throne Room of God that are life changing! I know I will re-read and listen to these resources again and again, for years to come. Thank you Tauren! From one beige sister to a beige brother-keep writing, keep singing, keep preaching, keep glorifying God and keep spreading Joy!
Love you my brother, in Jesus Name 🙏🏼💕

Deep Insights, Uplifting Humor, Enriching from Start to Finish!

I'm a fan of inspirational challenge: inspiration in the voices that encourage me to believe "I can" and the challenge that stirs my soul to believe "I will" - in Christ - climb the daunting heights to becoming more like Jesus.
I'm also a fan of Tauren Wells...the singer, the author, my pastor; the man who lives the love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith, wisdom, and self-control of the Holy Spirit in truth, contagious joy, and with such incredible grace as consistently and reliably as the sunrise.

Yes and amen 🙌🏻

I saw Pastor Tauren preach his sermon, Let Joy reintroduce himself at Elevation and it was amazing! I love that he narrated the book himself and he speaks to you like you’re having a one on one conversation. I also love the beatitudes and the way he breaks them down and shows us how Jesus meant for us to learn from his teaching as well as show us himself. Great job!

Find your Joy

This book leads you thru a fresh study of The Beattitudes. I'm ready to listen to it again!

Inspiring

Definitely listen to this one! Best book I’ve read this year! Touches on so many points that are worth the examining National.
