The lengthy discussion explores the concept of happiness, particularly from a Christian perspective. It highlights that happiness is deeper than mere feelings of joy or contentment. Instead, it stems from having peace, communion with God, maintaining loving relationships with others, accepting life's duality of good and bad, and pursuing godly goals. The steps to achieving a happier life integrate biblical teachings and focus on personal growth, character development, and spiritual alignment.

Highlights:

  • 🌟 Definition of happiness goes beyond feeling contentment or temporary joy.
  • ✨ Happiness involves a deep sense of well-being stemming from a relationship with God.
  • 😃 Steps to happiness include peace with God, peace with others, acceptance of life's challenges, personal growth, assurance in God's love, financial contentment, and purposeful goals.

Key Insights:

  • 🙏 Peace and Communion with God: Establishing a close relationship with God adds to one's sense of happiness.
  • 👥 Peace with Others: Walking in love and mercy with fellow humans enhances happiness.
  • ⚖️ Acceptance: Embracing both good and bad situations is key to sustained happiness.
  • 🧘‍♂️ Becoming More Like Jesus: Happiness is found in sanctification and personal growth.
  • 🏦 Financial Contentment: Trusting in God rather than material wealth for happiness.
  • 🎯 Purpose & Goals: Having praiseworthy and godly goals raises life's satisfaction.
  • 🕊️ Inherent Value: Knowing the best things in life, like God's love, cannot be lost.

This comprehensive discussion encourages personal introspection and spiritual commitment towards a more fulfilled and joyful life.

Would you ever say to God that you don't believe what He said but you believe in Him? There are places in Scripture that are hard to reconcile God's words with His character. Let me give you two examples that will blow your mind. These are such learning experiences for people in the Bible. There are not contradictory but reveal a subtle action of God to draw us into a deeper relationship or test us.

]]> Ministry isn't something you work for it is something you practice. It is interesting that God's qualifications in ministry have little to do with degrees or talent but almost entirely to do with character. Your ideal is what you wish you were. Your reputation is what people say you are. However, your character is what you are. We will look at what character is and is not. What are the great benefits of character and how do you cultivate it.

We are here to develop and elevate your leadership skills in ministry. If you listen to this broadcast you are probably innovative, hardworking and an early adopter.

I will tell you a little about myself and the purpose of the show. We will briefly look at the awesome power of mentorship. I had hoped that my own church could plant 10 to 20 churches in my lifetime - I was thinking too small. The power of discipleship is greater than that. I have helped raised up many pastors and planted dozens of churches when I was in California but now that we are in Albuquerque we have accelerated that. We have raised up fifteen pastors in just a few years and planted five churches. This is only the beginning. If you want to learn about ministry on any level this is the show for you.

We want to share with you one powerful treasure you have probably taken for granted. It is simple but powerful when done over a period of time.
