Now, in their first-ever devotional book, Kate Bowler and co-author Jessica Richie offer 40ish short spiritual reflections on how we can make sense of life not as a pursuit of endless progress but as a chronic condition. This book is a companion for when you want to stop feeling guilty that you're not living your best life now. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWritten gently and with humor, \u003ci\u003eGood Enough\u003c\/i\u003e is permission for all those who need to hear that there are some things you can fix--and some things you can't. And it's okay that life isn't always better. In these gorgeously written reflections, Bowler and Richie offer fresh imagination for how truth, beauty, and meaning can be discovered amid 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 recognizing that though we are finite, the life in front of us can be beautiful.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eKate Bowler\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of the \u003ci\u003eNew York Times \u003c\/i\u003ebestseller \u003ci\u003eEverything Happens for a\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eReason, \u003c\/i\u003e as well as \u003ci\u003eNo Cure for Being Human, Blessed, \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eThe Preacher's Wife.\u003c\/i\u003e An associate professor of the history of Christianity in North America at Duke Divinity School, Bowler earned an undergraduate degree at Macalester College, a master's degree in religion from Yale Divinity School, and a Ph.D. from Duke University. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eJessica Richie \u003c\/b\u003eis the executive director of the Everything Happens Initiative and the executive producer of the \u003ci\u003eEverything Happens \u003c\/i\u003epodcast.
