"--Kyle Rote, Jr., inducted into the National Soccer Hall of Fame"It doesn't matter how we define happiness, we all seek it. This book assists us in our quest. The author clarifies understanding of happiness, but more important, he gives us practical guidance for our quest. This is not a superficial "be happy" admonition; it is a genuine offer that is rooted in experience and the Christian faith and way.

I can't think of a person that doesn't need this guidance, and I commend it heartily."--Dr. Maxie Dunnam, President Emeritus of Asbury Theological Seminary"It's not just on MSNBC and Fox News that people don't listen anymore and can't get along.

We'll all be healthier and happier if we read and apply his solid advice."--Rev. Sanders Willson, Senior Pastor of Second Presbyterian Church"C.S. Lewis says, "Joy is the serious business of heaven."
