Thriving with Joy

Welcome to Thriving with Joy — where Scripture, spiritual growth, and soul care meet real life.

I’m Joy, founder of The Thriving Community, a spiritual formation and holistic development organization for professionals.

Here we explore what it means to live and work from wholeness — integrating faith, formation, and everyday rhythms that lead to a flourishing life.

You’ll find thoughtful teaching, guided reflection, and opportunities to participate in live formation experiences hosted by The Thriving Community.

Here, we reflect on Scripture, engage in formative practices and conversations about spiritual and personal development, purpose, relationships, and vocation.

Whether you’re a professional seeking a more integrated life, a leader longing for depth, or someone exploring what spiritual formation means, this is a place to rediscover what flourishing looks like in Christ.

Subscribe for weekly reflections and resources that nurture wholeness and sustained spiritual growth.



Thriving with Joy

When you think about wholeness, what picture comes to mind?

Wholeness is a word many of us know, yet most of us carry only fragments of what it truly means.

From a Christian perspective, wholeness speaks to God’s design for an integrated life — where mind, body, and spirit move in harmony rather than disconnection.

As you hear the word wholeness, what image or idea rises for you?
And how has your understanding shaped the way you live, work, and relate?

Next week, in the first gathering of our Formation Series, we’ll be exploring this theme more deeply — recovering God’s vision for human flourishing and what it means for our lives today.

Thriving with Joy

In which area of your life did you experience the most growth this year?
And which aspects do you hope to develop more deeply as we move toward the new year?

As the year draws toward its close, many of us pause long enough to notice what has shifted in us — and what remains unfinished.
Growth often appears in quiet ways: in how we respond, how we pay attention, how we relate.
Where did you experience meaningful growth this year?
And what areas are inviting deeper development as you look toward the year ahead?

If you’re longing for a more intentional path forward, our three-part Formation Series begins next week — exploring wholeness, whole-person growth, and the rhythms that help us align with God’s design.
