Happiness is something we all strive for in our lives... but happiness isn't always easy to hold on to. In fact, sometimes it feels like we'll never be happy again.

But there is a way you can be happy regardless of your circumstances, and that is by choosing to be happy.

God has given us all the ability to choose happiness, and with the right habits we can be happy no matter what is going on in the world or in our lives.

This nine-part series by Pastor Rick Warren will teach you and your members how you can choose happiness even when facing painful situations. Each message will provide you with a practical tool you can use to stay on the path to a happy life.

Sermons included:

  1. Growing Healthy Relationships shows us how to build healthy relationships by looking at five laws of happiness.
  2. How to Be Happy No Matter What teaches us how to look at our problems through God's perspective to gain a more positive outlook on our lives.
  3. The Humble Path to Happiness looks at one habit that is the key to happiness and reduced conflict in your life—humility.
  4. How to Keep Your Heart Happy lists five common reasons we lose happiness in our lives and gives us Paul's "heart exercises" to get it back.
