Inspiring Growth

Raised Catholic, she sang songs about Jesus as a child and lived in a house where nuns and priests were regular guests, yet she found herself questioning the faith of her family, examining the reasons none of it added up, and distancing herself from the God of Christianity. Despite her questions—or perhaps because of them—she made a career out of trying to understand God, pursuing a PhD in religion. But even as she taught college students about mystics, theologians, and others who wrestled with God, she was never able to embrace a faith of her own.

On her acclaimed blog, Wood and Spoon, Kate Wood shares her delicious recipes and stories of her family. Her faith is the basis of everything she does, and in this spiritual devotional, she combines some of her best recipes with stories and reflections, Bible verses and prayers, along with treasured family recipes to help women get in touch with themselves and their faith, and deepen their bonds with family, friends, and community.

How to Trust Your Inner Voice doesn't offer routines to add to your already busy schedule. Instead, it offers a simple and accessible explanation for how our mind blocks us from accessing our own personal GPS system, the soul. The soul knows what to do, always.

You don't have to live this way!

For too long, the Southern woman has been synonymous with the Southern belle, a "moonlight and magnolias" myth that gets nowhere close to describing the strong, richly diverse women who have thrived because of - and in some cases, despite of - the South.

The Bible contains around 750,000 words - a number that would intimidate even the most seasoned readers of the Bible. Yet, from the beginning of time, God set in place a plan to bring us back to the One who loves us. Remarkably - as though God couldn't wait to tell us - this plan is telegraphed in the first few pages of the Bible and can be summed up in just 10 words: light, dust, breath, garden, river, eat, alone, naked, afraid, sweat. Deron Spoo traces each word through the Bible and explains how these words reveal God's plan for restoring our broken world.
