Max Lucado is one of my favorite authors and I never miss and opportunity to talk with him! In his new book, How Happiness Happens, pastor and best selling author Max Lucado, shares the unexpected path to a lasting happiness, one that produces reliable joy in any season of life. Based on the teachings of Jesus and backed by modern research, Max tells us and shows us that Happiness happens when we give it away! He shares his personal experiences and backs his suggestions with research, for example how modern imaging shows the pleasure centers of the brain lighting up, even when we THINK of doing something good for someone else! Stop waiting for others to make you happy. Be the family member who offers to wash the dishes after dinner. Be the colleague who serves the coffee at the next staff meeting. Volunteer at a soup kitchen...There are innumerable ways to be a giver! If you haven't been able to check the Happiness Box lately, join us on this episode! ~ Delilah
