For all of the bad press that secularism gets in religious (and particularly Catholic) circles, the fact is, secular culture often provides us with insights that are congruent with the proclamation of the Gospel. Case in point: this brief talk on happiness by Psychologist Shawn Achor is consistent with the approach to a healthy Christian spirituality. In fact, it is just this kind of thinking that inspired me to write my newest book, 7 Keys to Spiritual Wellness which will be available in just a few short weeks (you can download the introduction and chapter 1 here!)
I highly recommend you take the few minutes to watch this highly entertaining, informative, and engaging video…very inspiring for us catechists who strive to make a joyful proclamation of the Gospel to those we teach! (Thanks to my friend and colleague Kathleen S. for sharing this!)
