Self-Help
In God Wants You Happy, Father Jonathan Morris replaces the
unsatisfying, fleeting solutions we receive from the New Age
self-help industry with the simplicity and depth of
authentic Christian spirituality. In his work traveling the
world for FOX News and in his parish work in New York City,
Father Jonathan could not understand why people were
choosing the vague and sometimes harmful advice of the
self-help gurus and ignoring the tested and true help the
Christian faith offers. He discovered that part of the
problem was packaging: people thought the church dealt only
in sin and guilt and not help and healing. But what if we
reframed God's good news in the same terms as the self-help
world? Morris argues that self-help can only take you so far; what
we need is God-help. God Wants You Happy offers a life-long
spiritual program that teaches you how to open yourself up
to God's loving presence in order to become everything he
created you to be—joyful, flourishing men and women. In
other words, God wants you to be happy. Illuminated with biblical passages and filled with case
studies and exercises, God Wants You Happy helps you to: * Open your mind and heart to the all-loving God who
wants to help and empower you
* Work through the Faith-Hope-Love Cure to rid yourself
of self-destructive and self-limiting habits while forming
new habits for receiving grace, forgiveness, acceptance, and
love
* Tap into the natural mechanisms of self-improvement
God has already put within you
* Discover your divine mission A lifetime of happiness is at your fingertips and the
Creator of the universe wants to help you achieve it.
