Synopsis
Most people believe that the ultimate goal in life is happiness. You may be unaware that your lifelong search for happiness has been fueled by a deep-down, often subconscious hunger for what the Bible calls joy. No one can be happy all of the time, but anyone can always have joy. In fact, according to the apostle Paul, it is God's will for you to "Be joyful always" (1 Thessalonians 5:16). In a world constantly bombarding us with a message that the dysfunctional life is the norm, you can have the confidence of following seven clear, biblical steps to emotional health, spiritual well-being, and unconditional joy. Why settle for happiness when you can have unconditional joy? Dr. Nowell explains how you can get it, have it, and keep it!
