El secreto de la felicidad: Gozo duradero en un mundo de comparaciones, decepciones y expectativas insatisfechas

Escrito por Max Lucado

Narrado por Johnny Pena

Max Lucado desacredita la idea que tiene nuestra sociedad sobre cómo obtener la felicidad y lleva al lector a la clase de vida que genera una alegría duradera, verdadera y satisfactoria, respaldada por las enseñanzas de Jesús y la investigación moderna.

Felicidad: todos la anhelan, pero pocos la encuentran. Nuestro mundo, nuestra cultura e incluso nuestros amigos nos dicen que la felicidad viene cuando perdemos peso, conseguimos esa cita, encontramos pareja o descubrimos nuestro destino. Este es un camino ancho hacia la felicidad. Sin embargo, a pesar de prometer, no cumple.

En El secreto de la felicidad, Max Lucado analiza en profundidad lo que Jesús dice sobre la felicidad y cómo obtenerla. Él escribe: “¿Qué pasaría si hubiera un camino diferente e inesperado hacia la felicidad? ¿Qué pasaría si ese camino se tratara de menos buena suerte y más amor, de no tanto para recibir y todo para dar?” Contracultural con cada vuelta de página, El secreto de la felicidad lucha contra las inclinaciones que todos tenemos y las mentiras que nos han enseñado acerca de preocuparnos por nosotros mismos primero como una forma de capturar la “vida feliz”, tan anhelada pero esquiva a la vez.

Al recorrer la experiencia de los personajes que se encuentran en las Escrituras, Max le muestra al lector una forma de vida y acciones prácticas cotidianas que producen la felicidad y los momentos de verdadero gozo. Este nuevo libro de Max revela el secreto que la Biblia enseña y la investigación afirma: que hacer el bien beneficia más a quien lo hace.

How Happiness Happens

Max Lucado debunks society’s idea of how to get happiness, leading the reader to the way of life that creates lasting and fulfilling joy, supported by Jesus’ teaching and modern research.

Why don’t I feel happy? I thought I’d feel it when I lost the weight, got the date, found the mate, or discovered my fate. I’ve worked hard for happiness. Yet, for all their promises, these roads I’ve been down fail to deliver.

Sound familiar?

In How Happiness Happens, Max Lucado takes a close look at what Jesus says about happiness and how to attain it. Max poses the question, “What if there is a different, unexpected path to happiness? What if the road is less good luck and more great love, not as much get and all about give?” Countercultural with every turn of the page, How Happiness Happens fights the inclinations we all have and the lies we’ve all been taught about putting self first as the way to capture the elusive yet longed-for “happy life.”

By walking through the “one another” passages found in Scripture, Max equips the reader with both an overarching way of living and practical day-to-day actions that produce a life of happiness and moments of true joy. This new book from Max reveals the secret that the Bible teaches and research affirms: doing good does good for the doer.

Solid Pointers, Regardless of Philosophy. This is a partial review based on the first 5 chapters of this text being provided by the publisher.

Here, one of the icons of my childhood, Max Lucado, takes on the topic "how can I be happy?". And regardless of your particular belief system, he makes some really great points. Yes, the man has been a preacher most of my life if not longer. His first book was published when I was just 6 yrs old and learning to read, and his style really hasn't changed in all that time. And honestly, that is one of the things that makes him so great. His style is very conversational and quite funny, and that makes any of his books - this one certainly included - very easy reads.

And yet, it is exactly that approach that gets him 4 stars here. Why? Because I *need* to see the back half of the book to see exactly where between 3 and 5 stars this text will ultimately land. With what he has laid out in the beginning of this book, combined with the titles for the back half that I don't yet have access to, this book could go anywhere from mind blowing to just run of the mill Lucado (which, again, is still great - particularly in regards to how easy it is to read his books). Based on what I know of him from reading his books for literally most of the time I've had the ability to read and of his situation from having grown up in the same types of circles he has lived in throughout my life, I *expect* Lucado to play it a bit safe in that back half. He likely isn't going to say anything that will get too many people too angry either direction. What he likely says will be theologically orthodox, but verbally kind - that is pretty much Lucado in a nutshell. But man, if he does the unexpected and actually takes some bold-for-his-age-and-position stances... it could be revolutionary.

A pessimist will find several faults here, chief among them the continued use of proof texting, and likely hit that 3* ranking.

An optimist is going to see how readable this text is and how refreshing its message is and likely hit it with the 5*.

This realist could agree with both of them and really needs more information to make a more sound judgement, so the 4* feels like the right option at least for now.

Excellent work, and it truly is an honor to be able to ARC a book from one of my childhood literary heroes.
