<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Offering a fresh, practical, motivating, and meaningful look at the ancient spiritual disciplines' resources for focusing on Christ and pursuing a transcendent purpose in life, the authors show how these disciplines can help shape a life that truly satisfies.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>We are only happy when we pursue a transcendent purpose, something larger than ourselves. This pursuit involves a deeply meaningful relationship with God by committed participation in the spiritual disciplines.<br/><br/><i>The Lost Virtue of Happiness</i> takes a fresh, meaningful look at the spiritual disciplines, offering concrete examples of ways you can make them practical and life-transforming.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br>Even in an age of instant gratification, life's best takes time and effort. What is happiness? The immediate gratification of our physical and emotional desires? A sense of satisfaction brought about through consumerism or other promises of short-term enjoyment? Our twenty-first-century views of happiness are not what the writers of the Bible had in mind. Nor is it what the ancient Greeks or the drafters of the Declaration of Independence envisioned. Such false ideas of happiness always leave us empty chasing the selfish and superficial. Authors J. P. Moreland and Klaus Issler illustrate how we are only happy when we pursue a transcendent purpose-something larger than ourselves. This pursuit involves a deeply meaningful relationship with God through a selfless preoccupation with the spiritual disciplines. The Lost Virtue of Happiness takes a fresh, meaningful look at the spiritual disciplines, offering concrete examples of ways you can make them practical and life-transforming.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Dr. J. P. Moreland is professor of philosophy at Talbot School of Theology, Biola University. He is the author of several books, including Love Your God with All Your Mind. <BR>Dr. Klaus Issler is professor of Christian education and theology at Talbot School of Theology. Among his books are Wasting Time with God and How We Learn.<BR>
