Overheard in yesterday’s sermon…

During my message yesterday at Lafayette Community Church, I made reference to a couple psychological researchers who made presentations at the TED conference regarding happiness and freedom and choice.

The two researchers are Dan Gilbert and Barry Schwartz. Linked here are the videos where they explain the results of their research:

  • Barry Schwartz, The Paradox of Choice
  • Dan Gilbert, Why are We Happy?
