About the Book

The Good Life Leader Kit includes a Bible Study Book, the original book on which the study is based, and one DVD with a promotional video and eight 9- to 12-minute video teaching sessions. The videos contain promotional material and teaching sessions featuring author Derwin Gray. The Kit also includes codes for access to digital video downloads.

Everyone wants to be happy. We spend our money, time, and energy chasing our version of the good life. And on the way, we run ourselves into physical, mental, and emotional exhaustion. But what if the happiness we're all striving for isn't the happiness we were created for?

Pastor and author Dr. Derwin L. Gray believes there is a better road to happiness, and it is found in the Beatitudes of Jesus. In this section of the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus revealed the shocking, countercultural path to true flourishing. It comes not through wealth, fame, or laughter but through poverty, obscurity, and mourning.

True happiness comes from a heart directed toward the kingdom of God and satisfied in Jesus the King. This 8-session small-group study demonstrates how Jesus taught us to search for, find, and hold on to the good life.

Session topics:
1) Happy are the Beggars
2) Happy are Those Who Lament
3) Happy are the Humble
4) Happy are the Hungry and Thirsty
5) Happy are the Merciful
6) Happy are the Seers
7) Happy are the Peacemakers
8) Happy are the Persecuted

Kit includes:
- One Bible Study Book
- The original book on which the study is based
- One DVD with a promotional video and eight 9- to 12-minute video teaching sessions
- Code for access to digital video downloads

Features:
- Video and session previews featuring author Derwin Gray
