The church has not focused on the search for joy and peace but on the forgiveness of human sin as the way to joy and peace. The church and its leaders proclaim it. Unfortunately, for many Christians, the gospel now means "the truth of God's forgiveness" instead of an "expression of perfect joy." As a result, the search for joy and peace has been left in the hands of advertising agencies and entrepreneurs who sell happiness in all its varieties. People hunger for happiness and long for laughter and joy. At parties, we laugh our heads off, but when we go home, the joy fades. We cry out for the ability to lay ourselves down and get a good night's rest. We long to live our daily lives without threats of any kind. We have the largest military in the world protecting us. But we do not feel safe and joyful. Join the author as he shares the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ and find the joy and peace you so desperately need in your life.

Peace. Joy. Both are qualities we crave but that often seem terribly out of reach, especially when life is threatened or when the hustle and bustle of modern lives leave little room for self-reflection--let alone reflection on things bigger than ourselves, beyond our understanding.Yet, it is only in making interior space, in reflecting and contemplation, that we have any hope of discovering peace, joy, and their ultimate source. With stories, songs, poetry, and convictions borrowed from a variety of traditions, this book explores the themes of fulfillment, purpose, and meaning. As one step on a journey, it aims to help readers understand the importance of serving others by recognizing their own inherent worth, and extending their own boundaries of comfort to find true Peace and Joy.---Rev. Francesco Iacona leads retreats and preaches full-time for Cross Catholic Outreach, raising funds for food, water, shelter, spiritual nourishment, medical care, education, economic empowerment and hope for the poorest of the poor, transforming their lives and our world, and awakening the Christ in those in the pews through opening their hearts to the plight of the poor. He is a priest of the Diocese of St. George's in Grenada. A missionary of peace and joy, he loves to affirm and bring out the best in others and himself.

Popular blogger Lauren Casper shares poignantly simple yet profound wisdom about removing the barriers we construct around our hearts and doing life full-on, all from the least expected source: her five-year-old son, Mareto. Five-year-old Mareto finds color and light in the ordinary happenings of every day and delights in beauty just waiting to be found. Those are lessons he shares, often unknowingly, with his mom, Lauren Casper. For Lauren, living with Mareto is a lot like playing the telephone game. He blurts out little phrases that have their origin in something he saw or heard, but by the time they make their way through his mind and back out of his mouth, they’ve transformed—often into beautiful truths about living a simple, authentic, love- and joy-filled life. From “it’s okay about it,” a simple reminder that even when life is painful or difficult, things will be okay because God promises never to leave or forsake his children, to “you’re making me feelings,” which teaches the importance of leaning into one’s emotions and, in doing so, sharing a piece of oneself with loved ones—Mareto’s simple yet profound wisdom is a reminder to embrace the broken beauty of life, to believe in a God bigger than human comprehension, and to love others even when it doesn’t make sense. For all those looking to recapture the faith, simplicity, wonder, hope, courage, and joy of life, It’s Okay About It provides a guide to look inward and live outward, to discover the most wide open and beautiful life possible.

"Karen Walrond shines her light so we can find our own." —Brené Brown Many of us have strong convictions. We want to advocate for causes we care about--but which ones? We want to work for change--but will the emotional toll lead to burn out? Leadership coach, lawyer, photographer, and activist Karen Walrond knows that when you care deeply about the world, light can seem hard to find. But when your activism grows out of your joy--and vice versa--you begin to see light everywhere. In The Lightmaker's Manifesto, Walrond helps us name the skills, values, and actions that bring us joy; identify the causes that spark our empathy and concern; and then put it all together to change the world. Creative and practical exercises, including journaling, daily intention-setting, and mindful self-compassion, are complemented by lively conversations with activists and thought leaders such as Valarie Kaur, Brené Brown, Tarana Burke, and Zuri Adele. With stories from around the world and wisdom from those leading movements for change, Walrond beckons readers toward lives of integrity, advocacy, conviction, and joy. By unearthing our passions and gifts, we learn how to joyfully advocate for justice, peace, and liberation. We learn how to become makers of light.
