The Way to True Happiness

Ralph Venning (1621-74) here proposes that true happiness is only to be
found in understanding and doing the will of God. Venning was admired not only
for his preaching but also for the consistency of his life. This, together with
his powerful calls to a pleasure obsessed world to seek happiness only where it
may be found, are perhaps the reasons why his writings continue to speak so
powerfully to us today.
