Book excerpt: **Named a Best Book of the Year by The Boston Globe, Garden & Gun, Electric Literature, and St. Louis Public Radio** The New York Times bestselling author of The Book of Delights and Inciting Joy is back with exactly the book we need in these unsettling times. Margaret Roach of The New York Times says, “Yes, please. I'll have another dose of delight.” In Ross Gay’s new collection of small, daily wonders, again written over the course of a year, one of America’s most original voices continues his ongoing investigation of delight. For Gay, what delights us is what connects us, what gives us meaning, from the joy of hearing a nostalgic song blasting from a passing car to the pleasure of refusing the “nefarious” scannable QR code menus, from the tiny dog he fell hard for to his mother baking a dozen kinds of cookies for her grandchildren. As always, Gay revels in the natural world—sweet potatoes being harvested, a hummingbird carousing in the beebalm, a sunflower growing out of a wall around the cemetery, the shared bounty from a neighbor’s fig tree—and the trillion mysterious ways this glorious earth delights us. The Book of (More) Delights is a volume to savor and share.

Book excerpt: he "18-inch miss." It's when truths about God lodge in your mind but fail to stir your heart. The book of Psalms is loaded with insights on how to cure this malady. What does it feel like to enjoy God's presence? The Bible uses emotional language like, "Delight yourself in the LORD." But what if you don't feel those emotions? Delight Yourself in God will show you the path to renewed passion for God and stoke the fires of your delight in Christ. This volume is a sample of the larger volume, Deeper Knowledge of God which is the result of a two-year deep dive into the Psalms to answer those questions that revolutionized the author's life. Delight Yourself in God contains the first 20 meditations from the larger volume. It focuses on four crucial attributes of God: * God's Presence * God as food and drink * God as filler of all things* God's superiority to earthly pleasuresEach day's reading focuses on how understanding and experiencing these attributes of God can awaken emotions such as delight, joy, hope, peace, and many others.Get your copy today and take your delight in God deeper than ever before!

Book excerpt: For almost fifty years, through her tireless service to the poor and her courageous witness for peace, Dorothy Day offered an example of the gospel in action. Now the publication of her diaries, previously sealed for twenty-five years after her death, offers a uniquely intimate portrait of her struggles and concerns. Beginning in 1934 and ending in 1980, these diaries reflect her response to the vast changes in America, the Church, and the wider world. Day experienced most of the great social movements of her time but, as these diaries reveal, even while she labored for a transformed world, she simultaneously remained grounded in everyday human life: the demands of her extended Catholic worker family; her struggles to be more patient and charitable; the discipline of prayer and worship that structured her days; her efforts to find God in all the tasks and encounters of daily life. A story of faithful striving for holiness and the radical transformation of the world, Day’s life challenges readers to imagine what it would be like to live as if the gospels were true.
