'Be Happy You Are Loved' changed my life. My marriage was falling apart, I had turned away from my family and had even contemplated ending my life. Things could not have gotten any worse. My father gave me this book to read. I read it in 3 days and by that third day, my life was making wonderful changes. Reverend Schuller shows us in this book that we must love ourselves before we can love anyone else, including God. If you are going through a rough time in your life or just need a pick me up, read this book. Reverend Schuller doesn't try to shove religion down your throat but he will give you the hope and uplifting that all of us need. 'Be Happy You Are Loved' is ABSOLUTELY the BEST book that I have ever read.

Dr. Schuller is one of my favorite authors. In this book he reminds us that relationships take time. Communicating effectively is an investment in a relationship. We're told, "A patient love respects a person's need to take time and understand a person's need to grow." The way people relate to each other changes as they both grow over time.

On influencing others and enhancing the quality of other people's lives, Dr. Schuller writes, "Love generates more love!" He couples this observation with a prayer, "Lord, show me the person you want to touch through my life today."

This book is timeless in its insightful wisdom. Its principles, based on the Bible, are applicable in every culture and setting. Read it! Live it! You and those you touch will be better off.

When Dr. Schuller was dealing with his daughter Carol's tragedy, he received a note and photograph addressed to her from the Duke himself, John Wayne. It simply was inscribed "Be Happy! You are Loved."
Love without faith is not love at all and that is what Dr. Schuller reiterates. With anecdotal stories and catchy phrases this man of possibility gives anyone the ideas needed to overcome any barriers.
Be Happy You Are Loved is a powerful book that gives us hope.
Love without faith- is impossible and faith without love is unacceptable.
