Happiness

In this clip Randy talks about some important distinctions between “blessed” and “happiness.”

In this clip Randy speaks about what Jesus meant when He said “Blessed are...” in the beatitudes and how the original audience would have understood those statements.

In this clip Randy talks about the words in Scripture that mean happiness and blessed and how culture shapes our understanding of words.  

In this clip Randy answers the question “Why did you write Happiness?”. 

A few weeks ago I had a delightful conversation with Dr. Lee Warren for his podcast about my book Happiness. Now may seem like a strange time to be talking about happiness, especially with so much heartbreak and sadness in our broken world. Please don’t misunderstand: nothing in this interview minimizes the reality of suffering.

Our actions should be in concert with our prayers—we should pray to find happiness in God and then take the kind of actions that will help us find happiness in God.
