Totally mediocre onesThis is a devotional for the rest of us, which is to say, the people who don’t always have magical lives that work out. Written in a season of chronic pain, Bowler understands that every day can be an obstacle course. She encourages us to develop our capacity to feel the breadth of our experiences.
The better we are at identifying our highs and lows, the more resilient we become.
Like a modern-day psalmist, Bowler’s spiritual reflections look for the ways we can expand our capacity for courage, love, and honesty—while discovering divine moments with GodWith bonus sections to use during the seasons of Advent and Lent, this is an easy book to read along with others too.

May all your days be lovely. But if they aren’t, have a beautiful, terrible day!
