Landon wrote – “I believe joy is the deepest thing in the universe…I also believe it is the deepest thing in the human heart. Joy in a turbulent life is like the stillness of the ocean’s depth during a horrible storm…. How to be joyful – this is our task.”

ACU to Host
Saunders Center For Joy
and Human Flourishing
Abilene Christian University’s Brown Library has announced that it will house the Landon Saunders Center for Joy and Human Flourishing.
The Center’s mission, aligned with Landon’s vision — is to foster ongoing conversation and reflection on the primacy of joy.
“Frederick Buechner once said that losing someone is like your house burning down, it takes years to realize all that you have lost. I think that’s how it is with Landon. It’s not uncommon in the course of my day to have a thought and then realize that it was Landon who gave the idea to me 30+ years ago.” — Larry Nelson
