***THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER***We begin to feel less alone, more loved and less judged when good is . . . enough.In this collection of 40ish short spiritual devotionals, Good Enough reveals the small things we can do to inch toward a deeper, richer, truer kind of faith. Through blessings, prayers and human truths, learn to live with imperfection in a culture of self-help that promotes endless progress, and discover a companion for when you want to stop feeling guilty that you're not living your best life now.Hailed by Glennon Doyle as 'the Christian Joan Didion', in these gorgeously written reflections Kate Bowler and Jessica Richie proffer fresh imagination for how truth, beauty, and meaning can be discovered amidst the chaos of life. Their words celebrate kindness, honesty and interdependence in a culture that rewards ruthless individualism and blind optimism. Ultimately, in these pages we can rest in the encouragement to strive for what is possible today - while recognising that though we are finite, the life in front of us can still be beautiful.

"I really appreciated a bunch in here, but I feel like it was written for somebody facing much more profound difficulties in life than I do right now. Three stars is a very personal review; I think for somebody whose life situation it speaks into more directly it would be 4-4.5 stars. The anti-perfectionism stuff was great. I found the blessing piece of each day’s reflection up and down, as were the suggested actions. I most appreciated the main reflection for each day, though by the end it got a bit repetitive and was sometimes a bit vague. Overall this is warm, positive, and encouraging in just the right way for a perfectionist trying to be a little messier. Most recommended if you’re dealing with something really hard."
