Never named, the spiritual seeker is us as we go about this business of living, forever on the lookout for the sometimes fleeting, seemingly elusive Joy, who we wish was us. "The Spirit of Joy" brings this dance of discovering our own divinity to life in believable style.You'll find little gems throughout the fast-moving, easy-to-read story. Mostly, you'll find yourself remembering what you've always known to be Truth. Dr. Carl Nassar takes those eternal truths and makes them practical...it's up to the Reader to make them applicable. "The Spirit of Joy" is a beautiful book, one that should be judged by its cover!

A great book to begin the new year

This is a powerful, heart-opening book that really makes you think and examine your life. It's uplifting. A great book to start the new year, and perhaps put yourself on a path to greater fulfillment and happiness in your life. It's a fast read--reads like a novel but contains some wonderful truths that are easily forgotten in the hustle of modern life.

The Spirit of Joy: A Transformational Journey...

The Spirit of Joy by Dr. Carl Nassar is indeed a journey of transformation. The author's journey to awaken his own soul, becomes a journey for the reader as well. Along the journey, Dr. Nassar uses stories and parables to share simple yet profound ways to bring joy into our everyday lives. What sets this book apart from many others is the author's practical application of his ideas for joyful living. By example, Dr. Nassar explains how to apply his uplifing and liberating insights, and how to maintain this fresh perspective when the routine stuff of life attempts to distract us back into our habitual patterns of negative thinking and living.A must-read, this book will open your eyes to the origins of your own negative beliefs, and inspire you to re-believe in yourself and in the joy we are all meant to experience in our daily lives.

An Exceptional Book

If you're tired of going through the motions of living without feeling that you have a life, then this book is for you. Dr. Nassar creatively teaches the reader how to view the events and people in our lives with love and compassion by opening the eyes of the soul. Most importantly, he shows us how to love ourselves. Within yourself lies the peace you seek. To consider yourself blameless while you blame everything external to you for your problems is counterproductive to finding joy and peace. This book teaches universal truths that have been taught for centuries, but in a modern setting with a unique approach and application that makes the book hard to put down. If you want peace in your life, if you want joy and meaning, then you owe it to yourself to read this wonderful book. I've read, The Spirit of Joy once. I will definitely read it again. It is a primer for life, for joy, for hope. It teaches love of self and love of life. It is what we all seek, if we would but open the door.
