When it comes to happiness, most of us have the same questions. Why cant I be consistently happy? Is it wrong to be happy when theres so much pain and suffering in the world? And perhaps the biggest one: How can I be happier? Some Christians make an artificial contrast between joy and happiness, while others claim God wants us to be holy, but not happy. In fact, he wants us to be both, and the two go hand in hand!
In 60 Days of Happiness, noted theologian and New York Times bestselling author Randy Alcorn shares sixty timeless devotions demonstrating that God not only wants us to be happy in him and enjoy his gifts, he commands and empowers us to do so.

about this book
WHEN IT COMES TO HAPPINESS, most of us have a lot of questions.
- Is it possible to be happy when life is much harder than I expected?
- Is happiness something people of faith should long for?
- Does God even want me to be happy?
- And perhaps the most burning questions of all: Why am I not happy, and how in the world can I become happier?
Over the years, some Christians have made the claim that happiness is unspiritual that if you want to be holy, then you cant be happy. But thats not true to the Bible or Christian tradition.
Our problem isnt that we want to be happy; our problem is that we keep looking for happiness in all the wrong places. This book will take you to the primary source of happiness in the universe God. It will then connect the secondary sources of happiness back to the God who created them and graciously gives them to us.
In the process, I think you may experience some paradigm shifts that will bring a smile to your face and forever change your view of happiness and what God thinks of it. It may also change your perspective on Gods nature, causing you to see him in a way that floods you with gladness and increases your fondness toward your Creator. I believe you will end up not only loving him more but liking him better. At least, thats what happened to me as I studied Scripture and meditated on this subject for more than three years.
This book is drawn from carefully selected portions of my larger book Happiness. However, Ive reworked the material to present it in a fresh and different way. I hope it not only informs you about one of the most appealing subjects in the world but also encourages you, motivates you, and moves your affections toward God.
Ive received many encouraging responses to Happiness, partly because the subject matter is close to our hearts, whether or not we realize it. But its not just the subject of happiness that draws people; its seeing for the first time that God is happy, that he has made us to be happy, and that he has gone to incredible lengths to procure our eternal happiness.
While Ive written the big book Happiness and also a very small one, Gods Promise of Happiness, I felt the need for a medium-sized book for those who want more than the one and less than the other.
With the help of an editor and friend, Doreen Button, I selected the subjects Id researched that most lent themselves to personal growth and worshipful meditation on God and his Word. The Scripture passages, inspirational quotations, and prayers that are part of each meditation help it touch the heart. But the biblical substance and theological implications of these topics will also deepen your mind and broaden your perspective. I hope these truths will delight you and bring insight that will infuse your life with happiness.
