Topic: Happiness

Book: Psalms

Campus: FishHawk

Scripture: Psalm 1

Pastor Steve explains why chasing happiness directly never works – whether through money, relationships, or success. Instead of pursuing happiness, he suggests focusing on doing what’s right (righteousness) and genuine happiness naturally follows. Using Psalm 1, he explains three key moves: avoid toxic influences, embrace wisdom from Scripture by “chewing on it” daily like meditation, and trust the slow process of growth. He compares it to planting a tree – you won’t see immediate results, but over time you’ll develop deep roots that keep you grounded when life gets tough. It’s about building something lasting rather than chasing temporary highs.
