How Happiness Happens
$28.99
Max Lucado debunks society’s idea of how to get happiness, leading the reader to the way of life that creates lasting and fulfilling joy, supported by Jesus’ teaching and modern research.
Why don’t I feel happy? I thought I’d feel it when I lost the weight, got the date, found the mate, or discovered my fate. I’ve worked hard for happiness. Yet, for all their promises, these roads I’ve been down fail to deliver. Sound familiar?
In How Happiness Happens, Max Lucado takes a close look at what Jesus says about happiness and how to attain it. Max poses the question, “What if there is a different, unexpected path to happiness? What if the road is less good luck and more great love, not as much get and all about give?” Countercultural with every turn of the page, How Happiness Happens fights the inclinations we all have and the lies we’ve all been taught about putting self first as the way to capture the elusive yet longed-for “happy life.”
By walking through the “one another” passages found in Scripture, Max equips the reader with both an overarching way of living and practical day-to-day actions that produce a life of happiness and moments of true joy. This new book from Max reveals the secret that the Bible teaches and research affirms: doing good does good for the doer.

Abolition Of Man
$17.99Add to cartIn this graceful work, C. S. Lewis reflects on society and nature and the challenges of how best to educate our children. He eloquently argues that we need as a society to underpin reading and writing with lessons on morality and in the process both educate and re-educate ourselves. In the words of Walter Hooper, “If someone were to come to me and say that, with the exception of the Bible, everyone on earth was going to be required to read one and the same book, and then ask what it should be, I would with no hesitation say The Abolition of Man. It is the most perfectly reasoned defense of Natural Law (Morality) I have ever seen, or believe to exist. If any book is able to save us from future excesses of folly and evil, it is this book.” This beautiful paperback edition is sure to attract new readers to this classic book.

Millions eagerly awaited the publication of each novel, relishing the story of the bookish and bighearted Episcopal priest and the extraordinary fullness of his seemingly ordinary life.

For the first time in decades, Father Tim returns to his birthplace, Holly Springs, Mississippi, in response to a mysterious, unsigned note saying simply: “Come home.” Little does he know how much these two words will change his life. A story of long-buried secrets, forgiveness, and the wonder of discovering new people, places, and depth of feeling, Home to Holly Springs will enthrall new readers and longtime fans alike.
