When I decided that I wanted to write a book on Joy, (Undaunted Joy: The Revolutionary Act of Cultivating Delight coming 2025 at Zondervan) I started to look for writers to be in conversation with.  I read books already written on joy and then also books that were similar to what I wanted to do.  What were these writers doing?  What did I want to emulate?  What did I want to do differently?

You might find a book or two to inspire you from this list.  They are all joyful and thoughtful texts which I will return to and continue to have “conversations with” for years to come.

Sure I put candy in my kids Easter Baskets, I’m not a GRINCH!

But I love to put a few faithfilled gifts to remind them why we celebrate.

And with Baptisms, First Communions and Confirmations filling up my calendar for the next several months of Sundays, I thought I’d share a few of my favorite faith filled gifts with you.

Here are a few books I am looking forward to reading……and a few are available for pre-order!
