Synopsis

"You can be happy. Jesus said so, and he meant it. Twenty centuries of time have failed to disprove his plan for happiness and contentment. As a matter of fact, time has proved Jesus was correct. Jesus' teachings for a happy, stable, adjusted life are reflected in much present-day psychology and psychiatry. His principles are being advocated today as though men have discovered something new." Dr. William V. Myres wrote these words at the start of DESIGN FOR HAPPINESS, his classic 1961 treatise on the psychological principles utilized by Jesus Christ in The Sermon on the Mount. In this book, reissued for a new generation, Dr. Myres underscores the familiar passages of Christ's message by making connections to important psychological truths. DESIGN FOR HAPPINESS reviews the Beatitudes and Jesus's parables and explains the harmonies between Christ's message and modern psychiatric principles, in clear, easy-to-understand language. "For hundreds and hundreds of years the Bible has been calling attention to psychological principles to make life more livable. Time has failed to improve upon the fundamental psychological conditions advocated by the man from Nazareth. No, the current terms are not found in the Bible, but the psychological principles of personal adjustment are there in abundance."
