Taste and See

Taste and See is a recipe book of fifty-two different devotions that begin with Scripture and end with deep, meaningful, and even laughter-filled conversations about our daily walks--struggles and victories, prayer requests, and praise reports.As a child, I always wanted to be at the grown-ups' table; I thought the best conversations happened there. Then I became the adult and the mom and the one who gathered people around the table. We'd set everything out and serve the meal, and before I knew it, we were cleaning up and saying good night. While these moments were among my favorites with my most-loved people, they often left me unsatisfied. Where was the depth, the real connection? I learned that the best dialogue doesn't just happen--it requires as much thoughtful prayer and preparation as the food itself.And so this book was born.Each of these devotions can be done alone, but like most recipes, they are also designed to create goodness to share with others. They can be tried in order or randomly as the Spirit leads. They can be shared one time or revisited again and again, with the same folks in a different season or with new ones. Whatever you choose, prepare to be filled up with genuine reflection and hearty conversation that lasts long after the last dish is washed and put away.
