The pursuit of happiness is universal, and as his Holiness explains, there are no quick fixes. With his uniquely authoritative and informed perspective, Francis shows us how to address our deepest longings. Drawing on his own past experiences as a priest, His Holiness will discuss the meaning of - and journey towards - happiness, a subject of central importance in his teaching and testimony.

For Pope Francis, the appreciation of our everyday lives is a spiritual undertaking. Joy is a divine attribute, and creating joy around us an essential part of faith. Every homily and speech in this book delivers a key lesson, instructing readers on finding love and happiness in a chaotic world.

Pope Francis discusses the sanctity of women's rights, talks about how the love of sports can bring out our best qualities, and explains why fighting discrimination is the essence of love thy neighbour. He shares personal stories and anecdotes from his life, provides comforting messages of hope, and discusses the ways flawed families can make you a better person. The core ideas of Francis's papacy shine through.
