Finding happiness


Lots of people are looking for happiness. In the United States the pursuit of happiness is enshrined in the Declaration of Independence as a God-given inalienable right. And isn’t it something that everyone wants? Don’t we all avoid things that make us sad or angry and gravitate towards things that make us happy?

Changing for goodness’ sake

So much of life is about making changes, and the Lord wants us to change for the better. What significant changes do you want to make in your thinking or habits? Rev. Nathan Gladish overviews two plans for change that can help you organize and track your efforts. One is drawn from psychology and the other from the teachings of the New Church. Use them together to gain insight into how you can progress toward a new, happier life.

Daily Inspiration

"The Lord never judges anyone from anything but goodness. He wants to raise everyone into heaven... The Lord, you see, is mercy itself and goodness itself, thus could never condemn anyone. It is we who condemn ourselves, because we reject his goodness."
