Finding Peace, Happiness, and Joy

In this collection of messages, Richard G. Scott explores how people can find lasting peace, happiness and joy in a world full of stress and disappointment. He looks at the role of faith, obedience and a personal relationship with Jesus Christ in calming troubled hearts, and he offers counsel on dealing with trials, guilt and fear. The tone is gentle and encouraging, with a focus on practical steps readers can take in daily life. Drawing on scripture and the teachings of his faith, the book aims to help readers see that true contentment comes from living in harmony with divine principles.
