Letters from Joni | December 2025

Dear Partner,

One of my favorite parts of the Christmas season is the joy that fills the air. Everywhere you look, there’s a sense of wonder and warmth—and that joy all points back to Jesus. The angel’s announcement still rings true today: “I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people” (Luke 2:10).

No matter what this year has held, the birth of our Savior reminds us that joy isn’t dependent on circumstances—it comes from knowing Him. True joy flows from the presence of Jesus, and when we keep our hearts centered on Him, it becomes our strength in every season. So let’s carry that same joy into our homes, our families, and our world this Christmas. You never know who might find hope just because they saw His light shining through you!

And speaking of joy, I’m so excited to share some wonderful Network News! Daystar Television Network has launched on MAXtv in Croatia, Channel 668, reaching 400,000 subscribers through Hrvatski Telekom! Every new platform means more people hearing the message of Jesus, and that’s something to celebrate this Christmas season.

Also, be sure to catch my dear friend Carla Shellis in a very special holiday series called “A Carla Shellis Christmas,” airing Tuesdays at 3:30pm EST now through December 23. It’s such a fun, heartwarming show where Carla shares cooking and hosting tips, along with practical and emotional etiquette for the holidays. Through laughter, love, and meaningful life lessons, she helps women bring peace, purpose, and joy to their homes—I know you’ll love it as much as I do!

As we celebrate the birth of Jesus and close out another wonderful year together, I want to wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year. May your home be filled with joy, your heart be at peace, and your days overflow with the love of Christ.

Blessings,

Joni Lamb
