The Speakeasy

Does God Care If You’re Happy? | Tauren Wells | Episode 355


Listen Later

Singer, songwriter, pastor, and author Tauren Wells joins Blake to explore what true, lasting happiness looks like through a biblical lens. They unpack the idea that spiritual happiness is the anchor that gives meaning to every other kind of joy—whether vocational, relational, or even found in everyday moments like cleaning the house. The conversation centers around the foundational truth that spiritual happiness is the anchor that allows joy in all other areas to not only exist but to last. Together, they challenge the belief that God only cares about our sanctification, reminding listeners that He’s also invested in our flourishing and delight. This conversation is a rich reminder that joy doesn’t have to be loud to be real—and that God is at work even in the simplest of things.

In this episode, you’ll be able to…

  • Understand the difference between fleeting happiness and lasting spiritual joy.

  • Learn how to find contentment in the quiet, ordinary moments of life.

  • Be encouraged that God cares about both your sanctification and your flourishing.

    Tauren is the author of Joy Bomb – available everywhere May 20!
