GOD’S COUNTRY The Trail to Happiness
The Four Trails to Happiness
The First Trail MY SECRET OF HAPPINESS
The Second Trail I BECOME A KILLER
The Third Trail MY BROTHERHOOD
The Fourth Trail THE ROAD TO FAITH
In a remote woodland cabin, the narrator opens a night of storm to record his thoughts on happiness. Surrounded by wind‑swept spruce, a distant owl, and the steady patter of rain, he reflects on the simple satisfaction of building his own shelter and fire. This quiet setting becomes a lens through which he surveys the restless quest of humanity for spiritual certainty, questioning the myriad beliefs that rise and fall like the weather outside.
The book unfolds as a series of meditative sketches that blend personal observation with broader cultural commentary. It examines how people cling to new creeds, revive old rites, and chase elusive answers to the “Great Mystery” of life. Listeners are invited to share the author's contemplative journey, feeling the tug of the storm while pondering what true contentment might look like in a world forever searching.
