Think God doesn't want you to be happy? Think again. While Christians shouldn't deny or ignore suffering, we should be so energized by contagious joy and radiate such inner happiness, peace, and contentment that others are attracted to what we have in Christ. Yet Christians are often perceived as angry, judgmental, and duty driven. Why aren't we happier? Unfortunately, many believers are taught that God wants us to be holy but not happy and that joy and happiness are fundamentally different.

Think God doesn't want you to be happy? Think again. While Christians shouldn't deny or ignore suffering, we should be so energized by contagious joy and radiate such inner happiness, peace, and contentment that others are attracted to what we have in Christ. Yet Christians are often perceived as angry, judgmental, and duty driven. Why aren't we happier? Unfortunately, many believers are taught that God wants us to be holy but not happy and that joy and happiness are fundamentally different. We've even been left with the impression that God himself isn't happy. Yet nothing could be further from the truth! God is happy, and he wants us to be happy too. Why else would Scripture call him "the happy God"? Why else would he call the gospel the "good news of great joy" and go to extraordinary lengths to ensure our eternal happiness? We know we'll experience unimaginable happiness in Heaven and on the New Earth, but that doesn't mean we can't also experience great happiness here and now. Join bestselling author and noted theologian Randy Alcorn as he dispels the modern Christian misconceptions about happiness and provides indisputable biblical proof that God not only wants us to be happy but commands and empowers us to be happy in him! The day has not yet come when God will wipe away every tear from his children's eyes, but rest assured, that day will come. Until then, this definitive work can help change the way you think about joy and happiness. From the inside flap: Get a head start on living happily ever after! Webster's dictionary defines happiness as--wait for it--"the state of being happy." Seems easy enough, right? And yet happiness eludes us. Most of us spend our entire lives trying to be happy, only to come up short time and time again. We think, If only I could find the perfect relationship, lose weight, get a better job, or make more money--then I'd be happy! But the truth is, none of these things will ever bring us true, lasting joy and happiness. There is, however, something that can. C. S. Lewis wrote, "If you want to get warm you must stand near the fire. . . . If you want joy, . . . peace, eternal life, you must get close to . . . the thing that has them." Now, in the most definitive work on the topic of happiness to date, Randy Alcorn shows us how we can draw closer to the source of joy, peace, and eternal life, and experience all the happiness God, in his infinite grace, has to offer.
