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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 15px;\"\u003eWritten gently and with humor, \u003cem\u003eGood Enough\u003c\/em\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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 15px;\"\u003eTheir 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. This book is a true companion for when you want to stop feeling guilty that you’re not living your best life now.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 style=\"color: #2c3e50; font-size: 1.25em; margin-top: 20px;
