The sacrament of happy : what a smiling God brings to a wounded world

Harper, Lisa Sharon (author.).

Summary: Happiness tends to be cast as a fluffy emotion without substance rather than a biblical concept, but this is not theologically accurate. The author dismantles the old-school idea that joy, not happiness, is the truly spiritual emotion, and asserts that Christ-followers are actually called to happiness.
