Bible Text: Matthew 16:13-17, Matthew 16:22-25 |

Series:

Sometimes we carry into life a number of almost unchallenged expectations about how life is going to turn out. These are what Father Thomas Keating calls “program for happiness”. Keating lists 3 programs for happiness that most humans carry into life:

• The desire for security and survival.
• The desire for affection and esteem.
• The desire for power and control.

These programs for happiness revolve around our relationships, our finances, our status, our health, and the state of the world.  When our program for happiness fails, we have to learn to adjust.
