Publisher's summary

What is true happiness, and how can we find it? Everyone wants to be happy. We spend our money, time, and energy chasing after “the good life”, and we run ourselves into physical, mental, and emotional exhaustion on the way. But what if the happiness we’re all striving for isn’t the happiness we were created for?

Pastor and author Dr. Derwin L. Gray believes there is a path to true happiness. It is a life lived with Jesus by embracing the Beatitudes found in Matthew 5:1-12. As you walk through these words, Jesus invites you into a new life-giving rhythm that cultivates a flourishing, happy, transformative life.

Discover the good life for which you were meant.

Incredible. Life changing.

Amazing book. Thank you Jesus for prompting Derwin to write it. I loved how saturated with Scripture the entire book was. So good. Jesus transform your people to those who live out the Good life for all to see.

Amazing

Dr. Gray’s book is both authentic and accessible - authentic in his humble telling of God’s truths, and accessible in his way of getting to the root of the matter for true transformation. I’ll definitely re-read it for sure! Thank you Dr. Gray!

Brilliant!

Everyone needs to read / listen to this book! I’ve never heard this take on obtaining “the good life” before. I loved it. Also, I am VERY picky when it comes to audio books. I like when the author reads and the audio is easy on the ears. Both are true of this book. Get it. You won’t regret it.

Real deal happiness

This is not cheap feel-good sugar mush. This book is full of protein, a balanced diet of scripture and narrative that depicts the kind of life that Jesus was talking about in the beatitudes. Sheds new light for me, and I think I need to listen again. Thank you!
