Publisher's Summary
"I have never met a person whose goal was to ruin his or her life. We all want to be happy, and we want it all of the time."
So begins James Bryan Smith in The Good and Beautiful Life. The problem is, he tells us, we have bought into false notions of happiness and success. These self-centered decisions lead us further into the vices that cause ruin: anger, lust, lying, worry, and judging. Eventually, we find ourselves living a beautifully packaged life of self-destruction.
Following the Sermon on the Mount, this follow-up to The Good and Beautiful God guides us to look behind these character flaws and to replace our false beliefs with Jesus' narratives about life in the kingdom of God.

Great devotional, poor narration
A thought-provoking devotional which I have learned a lot from. The only downside was the narration - it sounded like it was being read by a computer? Some of the chapters i.e. about anxiety seemed a bit off - like declaring that anxiety is always a choice when it can in fact also be a medical condition. There needed to be a great recognition and understanding of different viewpoints in a couple places, inclusive of the anxiety chapter.

Very basic
If you’re after a simple understanding of a simplistic Christian theology, and how this might play out in reality, this book is a good summary.
But there is little on offer for anyone else.
