- God wants you to be happy. In this two day Focus on the Family broadcast, Jim Daly and John Fuller talk with Ms. Lisa Harper about her book, The Sacrament of Happy (bit.ly/2KL9ef7).
Lisa shares on how being happy is a biblical concept (there are over 2,700 references to happiness in the Bible!). She shares what kept her away from true Biblical happiness and how a panic attack drove her to counseling and eventually a deeper understanding of who God was and what He wanted for her life. She shares that we serve a happy God who is happy with us because of what Jesus Christ did for us on the cross, how we can learn to express happiness in healthy ways, and how it is possible for happiness and sadness to co-exist. Program closes with the reminder of the hope of heaven where and the happily ever after awaiting those who put their trust in Jesus Christ.
I could listen to her talk about Scripture all day.
She is so intelligent, wise and well-spoken without coming off as stuck up. She has a lot of knowledge but can teach it so that everyone understands. I love listening to her. She always increases my faith. It’s been hard listening to other people.
She seems Genuine due to personal experience
Lisa is SOOOO profound her teachings are so spiritual and yet practical
Lisa Harper is always speak to my heart ❤️ 💙 💜 💖
Greetings from Guyana🇬🇾 the JOY of the Lord is our Strength.
I admire her bible because anyone can see that she spends alot of time with it
Oh, how people would flock to churches and Christ if the pews were filled with JOY FILLED people!!! Let it be Lord, all across the earth!!!!
Lovely and reassuring.
Lisa I absolutely LOVE the way you speak and describe the Bible and Our Heavenly Father. The Love He has for each and every one of us, righteous or unrighteous. It’s amazing. Thank you. I pray to meet you in person one day or even email you someday. I have so many questions that need clarification. I pray to meet you.
Love the open mindedness of Lisa.
"Happiness is based on happenstance, joy is what God has called us to." Joy is not dependent on our circumstances or approval and acceptance of others.
I enjoy you Mrs. Lisa on Better Together on TBN. Thanks for this teaching? I need focus more on happiness with Gods help.
Thank you for sharing!
This is powerful!
Rehabilitative pain 😌 she is so right. The lord has taught me to not hide how I feel. And people, especially in the Christian community... do not get that! They judge it, they resent it and throw dirt on it. From my experience it’s labeled you have no faith, you don’t know God, you need more prayer, more bible, more prayer, etc. It’s sad! I hope nobody goes through it. It’s more painful to have additional offense to deal with from the ppl who are called to be a support system. I mean really.
So true but what is so wonderful. I am going thru a really hard time. I thank My Heavenly Father for the little church I go to. They are so encouraging and they mean it

So helpful. Thanks Lisa!
Lisa I think you are beautiful and all your experiences happen to bless others

Holy and happy are congruent. But do we ultimately seek our happiness in God, or do we attempt to manipulate our lives into producing perpetual feelings of happiness?
i have been abused too nearly all my life [ but God has pulled me thur ] yes its hard to talk about abusiveness without tears 😭
I would love to hear when Lisa was previously on focus on the family, where she shares about her childhood. I have searched for it, and haven’t been able to find it. Is there a link for that episode, please?
Holy Spirit is actually very funny by the way
I'm so glad she adopted Missy she saved her life by adoption so she could go to the hospital !
Look at the zfruit of the Spirit. One part of it is JOY

"Sorrow is better than laughter: for by the sadness of the facial expression the heart is made better.
4. The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning; but the heart of fools is in the house of amusement.
5. It is better to hear the rebuke of the wise, than for a man to hear the song of fools." (Ecclesiastes, 7:3-5)
Apparently He wants her to have an infinity pool.
She's gonna say no. So I'll skip it.
