Believing in God but Pursuing Happiness at Any Cost

Jun 7, 2026  •  Pastor Amber

Are you following Jesus—or just chasing happiness?

In Week 9 of The Christian Atheist, we expose a subtle struggle many believers face: putting personal happiness above God’s will. Culture says, “Do what makes you happy,” but Jesus says, “Deny yourself and follow Me.”

Discover why happiness makes a poor god, how holiness leads to deeper joy, and why true fulfillment is found in surrender—not comfort.

📖 Matthew 16:24–25

👉 Stop chasing happiness. Start pursuing Jesus.
