God Invites Us into His Happiness

article - Randy Alcorn Randy's blog
When the gospel is viewed primarily as laying burdens and obligations on people, the Good News gets buried. Burdens and obligations are not good news; good news is about liberation, deliverance, newfound delight, and daily celebration. Sure, duty is real and the gospel calls us to a life of obedience, but it’s glad duty and joyful obedience.

Gratitude Coupled with Humble Service Multiples Happiness

article - Randy Alcorn Randy's blog
Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth says, “Undeniable guilt, plus undeserved grace, should equal unbridled gratitude.” Far too often, though, it’s our arrogance and ingratitude and complaining spirits that are unbridled.

Rejoicing Is Rooted in Our God, Not Our Circumstances

article - Randy Alcorn Randy's blog
Rejoicing always in the Lord (see Philippians 4:4) may seem unrealistic at times. But we must remember that this rejoicing is centered not in a passing circumstance but in a constant reality—God Himself, and his Son, Jesus, who died for us and rose again.

When “Blessed” Means “Happy”

article - Randy Alcorn Randy's blog

Should We Want Our Children to Be Happy?

article - Randy Alcorn Randy's blog
God built a desire for happiness into our children, just like it’s built into every person who ever has or ever will live. The important question is, where will they seek that happiness? Will they look for it in Christ and in living a life rooted in Him, or will they seek it in the world and its endless empty mirages?

Finding Happiness Even in Hard Times: My Interview with Brain Surgeon Dr. Lee Warren

video - Randy Alcorn Randy's blog
A few weeks ago I had a delightful conversation with Dr. Lee Warren for his podcast about my book Happiness.

Please don’t misunderstand: nothing in this interview minimizes the reality of suffering.
