Joel Osteen is the pastor of the largest church in America with one of the most diverse congregations and over 30,000 members attending every week. He has quickly become a leading voice in a new generation of inspirational leaders and pastors. Under his leadership, Lakewood Church has grown in every area of ministry, more than quadrupling in size in the past five years. In the summer of 2005, the church moved into Houston’s 17,000-seat Compaq Arena and become the new Lakewood International Center. Joel and his wife Victoria live in Houston with their two children.

The EVERYDAY A FRIDAY JOURNAL is the perfect companion to Joel Osteen's latest book Everyday a Friday. It offers the same encouragement, but in daily doses, supplemented by inspirational and thought-provoking material, including relevant scriptures, inspirational quotations, selected stories, prayers and points for contemplation.
The practice of journaling has many benefits. It helps people find clarity as they think through their challenges and opportunities. Putting pen to paper helps put matters into perspective and straighten priorities. Journaling can record readers' progress towards making the right choices to be happier people.
Joel says: "Happiness comes in many forms, whether it's the satisfaction of a job well done, the warmth of a friend's smile, or the serenity that comes in knowing God is present in your life. You have the power to choose joy whether through gratitude, with forgiveness, by serving others, or by doing your best."
This interactive journal provides readers with a concrete way of working toward happiness, each and every day.
My Thoughts:
Every Day A Friday Journal is a seven week journey in uplifting your spirit. It is the perfect companion to your quite time with God. It will awaken you to a happier day than the day before.
Contemplate on the answers and thoughts you want to share each day in your journal. All it takes is five minutes a day. Surely we can spare five minutes from our busy daily schedule. Have you laughed lately? From what I read it is actually good for your health. On my main blog I have a cute little anime on my sidebar with the verse.. "A happy heart makes the face cheerful,..." Proverbs 15:13 . I laugh out loud every time I see it.
I wanted to share with you the titles of the chapters in this journal...
- Week One: Don't Give Away Power
- Week Two: Know What To Ignore
- Week Three: Live Without Crutches
- Week Four: Travel Light
- Week Five: Laugh Often
- Week Six: Be A Dream Releaser
- Week Seven: Celebrate Yourself
I recommend you take this daily retreat into this journal with God. Don't forget to Laugh Today!
I rate this book a 4 out of 5.
