What would it be like to "taste and see" the goodness of God?

Longing for Good offers an experiential path to communion with God, others, and the rest of creation. Sarah Westfall takes you on a multisensory journey through practices designed to connect you to ordinary, everyday delights, helping move your intellectual knowledge of God into deeper knowledge of the soul.

This book blends memoir, reflection, and research to paint a picture of goodness based on the presence of God here and now, even when life feels shadowed and hard. You are invited to see your everyday life as sacramental, helping you begin to experience freedom in your innermost being.

What you'll find in Longing for Good:

• Discover how God's presence is not earned through striving or performance but is woven into ordinary life, even in seasons of loss and grief
• Participate in creative spiritual practices that help you engage God through taste, touch, sight, sound, and smell
• Find a vision of communal flourishing to help you experience a deeper, more authentic faith

If you've ever felt the tension between what you believe about God and what your experience of him actually feels like, this book was written with you in mind. Whether you're walking through a difficult season or hungering for a more substantive faith, Longing for Good offers a warm invitation to turn toward God and discover that he is already looking at you.
