Everybody is on a happiness quest. For many, happiness is measured in moments. Experiences. It's elusive. Unsustainable. What about you? What makes you happy? Something comes to mind for each of us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this six-session video Bible study (DVD\/digital video sold separately), pastor Andy Stanley examines the ways in which we tend to define \u003cem\u003ehappiness\u003c\/em\u003e and explains how that definition influences the way we pursue it. He reveals that happiness is about \u003cem\u003ewho\u003c\/em\u003e, not \u003cem\u003ewhat, \u003c\/em\u003e and that happy people are at peace with God, with others, and with themselves. He also shows how sin undermines peace because it separates us from God, others, and ourselves by substituting pleasure for fulfillment, things for people, images for intimacy, and self-expression for self-control.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe are often tempted to believe that happiness comes from acquiring things, but happiness is actually an outcome of what we sow in our lives. We can't acquire, consume, or exercise our way to happiness, but we may be able to serve and volunteer our way there. In the end, we find that if we live as if it's all about us, we will never be happy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSessions include: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNothing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlan for It\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePeace with God\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHappy Money\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShoes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou're Not Enough\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with the \u003cem\u003eWhat Makes You Happy Video Study\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003e \u003c\/em\u003e(sold separately).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCommunicator, author, and pastor Andy Stanley founded Atlanta-based North Point Ministries in 1995.
