Greg Laurie Asks 'What Makes Us Happy?'
As tens of thousands of Californians filled Anaheim's Angel Stadium for the Southern California Harvest Crusade 2015 on Friday night, pastor and evangelist Greg Laurie delivered the event's first nightly message, sharing how happiness can be experienced through our creator, who is "a happy God."
"Deep down inside, everybody wants to be happy. In fact, God prewired us that way," Laurie, the founder of Harvest Crusades, told crowd in his message, which followed worship songs by the Christian bands THIRD DAY, Citizens & Saints and Phil Wickham.
According to the Harvest team, 29,000 people attended in the stadium and another 29,368 people attended online. There were 2,353 professions of faith.

Laurie asked how can we experience happiness. Not the way many think. "I hope everyone can get rich and famous and have everything they ever dreamed of, so that they'd know that's not the answer," Laurie quoted comedian Jim Carrey as saying.
