Come back 🎉🎉🎉🎉

Oh Joy! Where did you go? I miss your videos so much. They encouraged me deeply on letting go, simplicity, and the beautiful things of life that matter most.

I really miss your channel. There doesn’t seem to be hardly anyone good to watch on YT anymore. Would love to have you back to talk about homeschooling, mothering, marriage, and simple living.

Hi Joy, I just shared one of your videos with a friend and this is what I said: “This lady is my all time favorite person I have ever come across on social media. She doesn’t post often but over the past 7 years I have watched and rewatched all of her stuff. She’s by no means trendy or an influencer and not necessarily our style. But her presence and words make me feel “right” in my heart. No striving but she joyfully presents simplicity and contentment. I watch her whenever I need a reset on my mind. Wish I could be her friend in real life!”

I wear dresses everyday just like you. I'm so glad I found this video. I'm 5 months pregnant with my 5th baby and I really want to live more simply. I have decluttered a lot but I still have so much. I loved when you said you were trying to live a simple life for the glory of his kingdom. That resonated with me so much because I spend a lot of time managing my things taking care of kids clothes and everything that there is to do. I really want to live even more simply

Miss seeing you here!

I wear skirts or dresses exclusively. These I pair with a cardigan, vest, or jacket or blazer. As a classic, almost daily I use a belt, pearls (both genuine and costume) and a scarf to feel put together. I often receive compliments on my appearance. I enjoy the art of dressing in a modest and feminine manner. A simple black skirt and a simple black dress are the mainstays of my wardrobe. Then I love a bright pop of colour in the sweater or jacket.

My entire summer wardrope is dresses I have 7 and rotate through them

I’m some 5 years behind🙈. Thank you for sharing this bookclub. I am trying my very best to do the study with my 2 daughters. One married and one not. Living in Southern California🙏🙏🙏

Love your channel Joy, it’s been a huge blessing to me over the last few years ❤

I miss your videos🙏💗

LOVE. ALL.OF. THIS!!!! I am trying to be minimalistic too, and I am off social media (but I do use my husband’s account for Facebook marketplace and a community group with our neighbors,) and it’s been A BLESSING!! Would LOVE to connect with you more if possible😄

I remember your husband's accident & believe it or not, I often tell people the miracle of his recovery. Glad to see you here, dear Joy. Hope & pray you are all well.♥️🇨🇦

Would you do an updated wardrobe and if you’re still doing the 10 item wardrobe.❤

Are you still doing this? I love the idea.

Hope to see more from you soon. You are truly inspiring.❤

I love these ! Such beautiful truths💕

My friend and I were on Marco Polo yesterday and we were talking about how excited and happy we were that you’re back!!! We both just love you!! Thank you for everything you do and for loving the Gospel and for spreading the Kingdom!!

Are you back again?! I was so excited to see these shorts (even though I'm more of a "longs" woman). You are the greatest source of godly encouragement on RUclips. I hope you can find a way to stick around that works for your life❤️🌻

Amen 🙏🏽 Good to see you on YT! 💕

Amen! God is so good!

I totally relate! I keep going back to this video! Every time I get caught up in fashion and needing to buy that next item that will be perfect I come back here and remind myself of these truths. Thank you!

Thank you Joy,!!!❤

Wish you would show the dresses a bit better

Any suggestions from others who live in a four season area for a capsule wardrobe? We have very distinct seasons such as 104 heat index and humid to below zero and many inches of snow. Clothes for home and housework, hiking and then church. Suggestions appreciated

Getting things secondhand is really important to me, too, even if it's "cheaper" to buy an item new from Amazon or Shein or something like that. My favorite things to wear are black denim shorts that I got from my neighborhood Buy Nothing group and one of the tank tops/t-shirts I got from my apartment building's giveaway area. Giveaway areas are pretty common in low-to-middle-income apartment buildings in New York City because folks declutter their spaces all the time, and it's easier to put stuff out for your neighbors to take than it is to transport it all the way to a donation center. Thank you for sharing your closet with us!

Thank you! I just found you this week, and I'm loving your cheerful encouragement. I'm a wife, a mother to four, and a grandmother to one. I live in beautiful central Illinois. 🙂

I miss your insight!!

We miss you! Hope you're doing well!! I needed a spiritual encouragement so I came back to check in for some uplifting Joy!! 🙏 -Rachel

Praying for your family!

My husband has never had social media either (and never will). It’s actually strengthening toward our marriage - one thing we never have to consider or feel insecure/uncertain about, as I know many couples do. This was very helpful, Joy. My family is definitely a minimalist when it comes to things outside the home on the regular. But I needed this reminder tonight when getting out of the house for midweek church (our only thing right now) wasn’t possible between my husbands job and the state of our home at that moment. It made most sense to let him rest and clean up together rather than push to the next thing and come home exhausted and frustrated at all that needed to be done. Thanks for chatting about this! I am now writing down my priorities and praying God gives me wisdom and grace. ❤️❤️❤️

Joy we miss you! I hope all is well, would love an update on life. Your inspiration and perspective is a blessing❤

Would love to know what you thought of your February books and any books that you read since then that you would recommend. I love book recommendations from Godly women! Hope you are well.

Rest is not a luxury, rest is a human right. Rest is part of the process of life, growth, and is necessary for healing. Rest is productive. 🌒💫

Reading through the Bible in 30 days right now. But also trying to fit in a few books as well (though I’m literally reading my Bible for 2+ hours per day right now) - The Keeper of the Bees by Gene Stratton Porter, Modern Miss Mason by Leah Boden, Sally Clarkson’s Tea Time Discipleship and David Platts Don’t Hold Back. Fun to listen to you again! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

I enjoyed your video and am wondering, do you have a house dress or wear an apron? How do you protect your clothes when working and cooking?

This was beautiful Joy. I love all of your videos!

Just found your channel from Ellie Hurst’s channel. Love this! So encouraging

Eli Hurst sent me. Enjoyed your video.

Loved this Joy, very encouraging re rest. My favourite book of 2022 was Hudson Taylor’s spiritual secret. I’ve just started to read Paul Washer’s the preeminent Christ

So excited to see you on RUclips again. You are such an inspiration and I missed your videos. Thank you for sharing!

Hi Joy, I’m a follower of Christ, wife and first time mum of a 4 month old living in Australia. I found your channel while I was pregnant and watched your videos a few times :) It’s so great to see you back on RUclips as you’ve encouraged me so much. Another great resource that my husband and I use is the app Through The Word. It goes through the Bible by chapter and then reads the chapter after the devotion. Highly recommend! So lovely to see you back again ❤ looking forward to more of your videos!

My top two favorite books are Hinds Feet on High Places and Not God Enough. Both are life changing. ❤

Thank you as always ❤

I know this is an old video, but I just heard you say that your daughter Hannah is going to Liberty. MY daughter Hannah is going to Liberty in the fall! I’m nervous it’s very far for us, we live in Alaska. But I keep hearing Gods prompt saying that it is where she is supposed to go. Thank you Joy!

Joy, I’m rewatching this again I love it so much, thank you!

Listening again...loved this refresh on the ten item wardrobe. Thank you💕

Re listening to this video! Perfect! I needed these words💕
