The Secret Of Happiness

Description of The Secret Of Happiness:

Happiness. It’s what we all long for, what all human beings seek in our jobs, our relationships, our activities. We try so hard to be happy, and all too often we end up empty and unsatisfied. Why? Because, says Billy Graham in this classic work, we are looking for happiness in all the wrong places. Instead of looking for happiness in the temporal pleasures of this world, we need to learn the secret Jesus taught in the astounding set of teachings we call the Beatitudes – that true, lasting happiness is a by-product, a bonus that comes when we seek what is really important. Presented with Dr. Graham’s characteristic simplicity, this landmark book teaches us to live above the circumstances of life and rest in the true happiness God wants us to have.

Information on The Secret Of Happiness from the publisher:

It's what we all long for, what all human beings seek in our jobs, our relationships, our activities. We try so hard to be happy, and all too often we end up empty and unsatisfied. Why? Because, writes Billy Graham in this classic book, we are looking for happiness in all the wrong places. We haven't learned the secret Jesus taught in the Beatitudes -- that true, lasting happiness simply isn't to be found by seeking it directly. Happiness is a by-product, a bonus that comes when we seek what is really important. And the things that will bring us the satisfaction we long for are not necessarily what the world considers meaningful. Jesus did not have to have an outward stimulus to make Him happy, Dr. Graham points out. "He had learned a secret that allowed Him to live above the circumstances of life and fear of the future. He moved with calmness, certainty, and serenity through the most trying circumstances -- even death! What was His secret? He gave it to us in the Beatitudes." Presented with Billy Graham's characteristic vigor and simplicity in this landmark book, it is a secret that can transform your life.

Most folks would probably never guess that the key to experiencing true happiness is poverty of spirit, meekness, mourning, and persecution. Now available for a new generation, Billy Graham's classic bestseller searches the heart of the Sermon on the Mount to show you Jesus' model for living a happy life---the Beatitudes. 208 pages, softcover from Word.
