About this audiobook
Unfortunately, many Christians are taught early on that God doesn't want us to be happy (he wants us to be holy). In fact, many Christians are laboring under the false notion that God himself is not happy. But nothing could be further from the truth! God does want us to be happy. The Bible is filled with verses that prove that ours is a happy, joy-filled God who not only loves celebrations but also desperately wants his children to be happy. Why else would He go to the lengths He did to ensure our eternal happiness in His presence? We know that we will experience unimaginable joy and happiness in Heaven, but that doesn't mean we can't also experience joy and happiness here on earth.
In Happiness, noted theologian Randy Alcorn dispels centuries of misconceptions about happiness and provides indisputable proof that God not only wants us to be happy, He commands it. The most definitive study on the subject of happiness to date, this book is a paradigm-shifting wake-up call for the church and Christians everywhere.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Incredibly thorough, helpful and engaging. Anyone who wants to be more happy should listen. Very thankful to Randy for his labours to produce this book, it has increased my enjoyment of, and happiness in, God - both in his everyday “crowded kindnesses” in my life, and in my anticipation of what he has in store for eternity. On a side note, Randy is a terrific narrator. I usually cringe when authors narrate but he is an exception.
