On the Bright Side: Feeling Good When Things Seem Bad

Happiness doesn’t just happen. Earth life is full of trials, tribulations, and temptations of every variety, and lasting joy cannot be found in the trappings of this world. The good news is that the gospel of Jesus Christ provides us with a reliable road map to happiness. By thinking, desiring, and living a certain way, we can feel good even when things seem so bad. This resourceful volume is a hands-on user’s manual for jump-starting joy, peace, and fulfillment. From exploring foundational truths about the nature of mortality, to examining specific roadblocks to well-being, to offering practical strategies for maximizing life’s goodness, trusted authors Ed J. Pinegar and Richard J. Allen provide a comprehensive tutorial on how each of us can live “after the manner of happiness” in this world, even as we prepare for never-ending joy in the worlds to come.
