About this listen
Is it crazy to want a happy life? The host of Jesus Is Real Radio and Hillsong Channel’s Real with Daniel Fusco unlocks the happiness we long for in the most famous teachings of Jesus and the apostle Paul.
“If you want the unshakable happiness Jesus has for you, this book can show you the way.” (Tim Timberlake, lead pastor of Celebration Church, Jacksonville, Florida, and author of Abandon)
Dissatisfied with your life? Yeah, most of us have been there. There’s no shame in wanting to be happy, but true satisfaction often eludes us. At best, the fleeting happiness we do find usually dribbles away in our never-ending debts, deadlines, and mindless scrolling. At worst, it’s chased away by anxiety, depression, or fallout from our own selfishness.
Here’s the truth: Whether we hunt for happiness in school parties, bars, the workplace hustle, or even in church pews, we’ll wind up shortchanged. Why? Because plain and simple, the only reason we’re so often unhappy with our lives is because we don’t see our lives as beautiful.
But God wants something better for you. In Crazy Happy, Pastor Daniel Fusco unpacks fresh connections in two of the Bible’s most familiar passages - connections that can really, truly, honest-to-goodness change things. If you stick around for the ride, you’ll find the kind of God-given beauty that can change your life and make you crazy happy, too - even in the midst of our sometimes-crazy world.
This audiobook includes a downloadable PDF that contains the Points to Ponder from the book.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.
