"Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart."-Psalm 37:4 What if you've lost your delight in God? Or you've never really experienced it in the first place? What if a season of suffering has snuffed out your joy, leaving you spiritually discouraged and emotionally numb? Delighting in God changes everything: how you experience your faith, relationships, and circumstances-and even how you see yourself. You can experience Psalm 37:4 as your daily reality. In Awaken Delight, Stephanie Rousselle connects scriptural and theological truth to your everyday life so you can experience what delighting in God really means. It's not about checking boxes on a spiritual to-do list or mustering a constant state of positive feelings. Rather, delight is about satisfying your soul's deepest longing through a vibrant relationship with the living God. In Awaken Delight, Stephanie Rousselle
- shows how delighting in God is crucial for spiritual growth, - provides spiritual habits that help you live in delight, and - includes discussion questions and Bible engagement great for book clubs or small groups.
By looking to Christ as your model of divine delight, you can discover that no matter what you're experiencing-whether weariness, sorrow, hope, or happiness-you truly can "taste and see that the Lord is good." If you are longing for a revived faith filled with hope, delight, worth, and grace, Awaken Delight invites you to cultivate a worshipful, life-giving delight in God that's rooted in God's delight in you.

"Stephanie Rousselle addresses one of the greatest needs of Christians today. Knowing God is not knowing about God but knowing him genuinely and with desire and delight. She does so practically and helpfully, in a style that sparkles with a verve and joy that is distinctively French."
