What does the bible say about happiness? Does God want us to be happy? In this part two of our series on emotions, we explore the concept of "happiness" and how it is often seen as a negative in some Christian circles. We explore the difference between joy and happiness, break down the "take up your cross" passage, and return to the idea that faith - and happiness - is communal.
Passages discussed: James 1: 2-3, Matthew 16: 24, John 17
