In this episode, Phil is joined by Fr. Nicholas Amato, the author of the new book Happiness and Joy: Can a Spiritual Life Have Both?

They explore these two important concepts, discuss how we can cultivate a life of joy, contemplative practice and action, gratitude, and more. Joy is ultimately a gift from God connecting us to God, ourselves, others, and the present moment. This conversation and Nicholas’ book will be sure to challenge and encourage you on the path to such greater connection.
