God wants you happy

God wants you happy

By Jonathan Morris

Book Description

In a spiritual landscape increasingly divided between traditional Christianity and popular self-help movements, Father Jonathan Morris offers a thoughtful bridge between two seemingly opposing worlds. Rather than dismissing the appeal of contemporary spiritual guides, this Fox News analyst and Catholic priest examines why millions have turned to New Age teachings for guidance and fulfillment.

Morris acknowledges the genuine spiritual hunger that drives people toward bestselling authors like Eckhart Tolle and Deepak Chopra, recognizing kernels of Christian truth within their messages. However, he reveals a crucial distinction: while New Age spirituality emphasizes personal power to control destiny, authentic Christian faith invites believers into relationship with the ultimate Higher Power who brings genuine healing and joy.

At the heart of this exploration lies what Morris calls the Faith-Hope-Love Cure, a transformative spiritual framework designed to address three fundamental human struggles. This divine remedy works by healing the intellect to embrace authentic faith, restoring memory to cultivate lasting hope, and transforming selfish desires to embody genuine love.

Through this pastoral approach, Morris demonstrates that seekers need not abandon their Christian roots to find practical spiritual guidance. Instead, he charts a path that honors both the depth of traditional faith and the human longing for personal growth, showing how believers can become the flourishing individuals God intended them to be.
