Lesson 19

Reasons to Believe: Four Kinds of Happiness

Lesson Vocabulary

  • Happiness
    :
    Fulfillment or perfection. In the Sermon on the Mount Jesus gave the Beatitudes as the perfection of the Ten Commandments. They teach us how to be truly happy, or reach human perfection and fulfillment which we ultimately find in Heaven.
  • Empathy
    :
    The act of understanding and sharing in the feelings of others, particularly their sadness and suffering.
  • Conscience
    :
    The gift God gave human beings to be able to use reason in order to judge right from wrong. Conscience is God’s voice in our hearts. We have a responsibility to educate ourselves and inform our conscience with prayer and God’s word about what is truly good.
  • Virtue
    :
    is a habit of doing what is good. We build virtues through our own efforts and with God's grace.
