Terry Unthank326The Bible tells us the joy of the Lord is our strength. It’s easy to be joyful when you’re given a raise at work, or you receive an unexpected blessing. It’s harder to have joy when a doctor gives you a bad report or a close friend turns their back on you. The joy of the Lord is not based on conditions. His joy is unspeakable and full of glory.

How can a person have joy in the midst of the valley? It’s by knowing who the giver of joy is. In all things we can give thanks not for all things but in all things. James 1:2-3 states “My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations;

Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.” The joy of the Lord doesn’t exempt you from struggle, but it can sustain you. Psalm 51:10-13 says ” Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me. Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me. Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit. Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee.”

Christians lets have the joy of the Lord in our lives, for others to see how good our God is.

Terry Unthank

If you ask Terry Unthank who he loves the most, there is no question about it, God is the answer. Terry accepted Christ into his heart at the age of five. He received the baptism of the Holy Ghost at the age of seven, and answered the call to preach when he was eight years old. Terry has been singing since a very small child. He recorded his first album (cassette only) when he was a teenager. Terry also has been promoting Christian concerts since 1998. Over the years he brought in many artists including Avalon, The Crabb Family, Dottie Rambo, The Martins and many more. Terry was honored for his achievements in ministry by being awarded a key to the city of Fairfield, Ohio, and having a day named Terry Unthank Day by then Mayor Ronald D'Epiffanio. Terry has just recently released his new self titled cd, recorded at Daywind Studios in Hendersonville, Tn. This cd includes six new songs including two written by Terry. There is also three hymns and one cover song. Along with pastoring the Miracle Revival Center in Lindenwald, Ohio Terry enjoys sharing the new music with others.
