Finding Happiness in the Chaos of Life

Description

Tricia Goyer wants to encourage Christians to embrace happiness in the Lord. She described her own painful past as an unmarried teen mom who surrendered her life to Jesus and experienced His profound love and happiness in her soul. Tricia warns fellow Christians about dangers of trying to be perfect, of trying to “earn” salvation, and of striving to do more rather than celebrate all the good God has done. She also shared stories about her struggles to raise 7 adopted kids and navigate their trauma, and how she learned to trust God for the results.
