Having a positive attitude is huge. While we may not be able to control the surrounding circumstances, we can always choose our own attitude and response. Happiness is a discipline.We can either let our circumstances control our feelings, or we can focus our hearts on God and seek joy. How do we increase our joy? The best book of the Bible for growing a glad heart and increasing our joy is Philippians. April and May this year we will be marking some of the key passages and teachings of the “Happiest Book of the Bible.” Bring your Bible as we “Mark Up Philippians” in order to expect more joy. ~ Dr. Bruce Humphrey  0/-%2!$/ 2/!$ s 3!. $)%'/ #!  >  7772"#0#/2' >
