Overview

God intends for you to be happy and fulfilled—that’s the encouraging message of the nineteenth-century classic The Christian’s Secret of a Happy Life. “Settle down on this one thing,” writes Hannah Whitall Smith, “that Jesus came to save you now, in this life, from the power and dominion of sin, and to make you more than conquerors through His power.” The exciting message of freedom—from the bondage of sin, to the life of Christ—is what has made The Christian’s Secret a favorite for more than a century. Smith’s masterwork is personal, practical, and powerful, and overflowing with substance for thought.

About Hannah Whitall Smith

Hannah Whitall Smith (1832–1911) did not have an easy life. Of her seven children, only three lived to adulthood. In spite of, and perhaps because of, her unhappy circumstances, she was able to advise Christians on how to find and keep the joy of the Lord in A Christian’s Secret of a Happy Life, her widely read and much loved book of Christian holiness theology. Constant themes in her writings include the assurance of salvation and freedom from anxiety, as she portrays the richness of God’s love and His desire to relate to us as the perfect Parent, Savior, Protector, and Friend. Hannah was also active in the Woman’s Christian Temperance Union.
