praise for Every Season Sacred
"I’ve so often prayed Kayla Craig’s words over my life, family, home, and community that the books have become dog-eared companions by now. In this new book of prayers and blessings, she gives us language for the nuance, delight, tragedy, and beauty of being alive right now."
"Kayla Craig does not offer us something new but something ancient—inviting us to embrace the rhythms of the created world as gifts that are meant to orient us toward a life rooted in the love of God. Every Season Sacred is an indispensable resource. Instead of asking us to fill our lives with more, she gently invites us to embrace what’s already been given—the unforced rhythms of grace."
"What a gift this book is to the world. Kayla’s poetic and divinely inspired devotionals will no doubt impact and empower individuals and families. I am thrilled Kayla’s words will grace the kitchen counters, bedside tables, and hearts of thousands. We need her grace-filled hope, prayers, and encouragement in every season."
"Every Season Sacred is a perfect blend of storytelling and liturgy, inviting us to slow down, stay present, and reorient our eyes to the love of God, even in the midst of a distracted, busy world. Filled with charming stories and poetic prayers, this book is a must-read for the whole family. A treasure to read and re-read, all year round."
"Kayla sees our everyday as the very place we meet God, and in this book, she shares with us how we might too. But the best part is that she’s offering us this lens not for ourselves alone but for the children we’re raising."
"Kayla has the unique ability to capture these moments—the great and the mundane—and give perspective and words to the celebrations and the memorializations. If your heart needs words, you will find them in Every Season Sacred."
"Without a shadow of a doubt, Kayla Craig has done it again. Every Season Sacred poignantly and profoundly meets us in the messy middle of life: a place few, if any, find comfort, but as parents, it’s where we most often reside.These pages filled with meaningful prompts, prayers, and reflections are sure to nurture my family while nourishing this weary mama’s soul."
"Kayla Craig compassionately takes us by the hand and invites us to remember that the Creator of the universe walks with us through each and every season. With stunning prose, heartfelt prayers, and deeply rooted contemplative rhythms, Every Season Sacred is an invaluable resource for families. I cannot recommend it highly enough."
"Kayla Craig gives a spiritual shorthand to grownups who long to have more meaningful, divine connection within their family’s day-to-day but can barely fit it in among jerseys to wash, paperwork to sign, meals to prepare, and all the other detritus that seems to fill our days. Flexible, poignant, and (best of all) practical, Every Season Sacred reminds us that the Holy Spirit is working in and through our families and invites us to join in on that holy and nurturing work."
"At turns tender and funny, thoughtful and profound, this practical guide makes the seasons of the church year accessible for today’s families, with prayers for all ages, relatable reflections, and engaging questions for faith conversations. Every Season Sacred draws from real-life stories and diverse voices to offer an enduring gift for parents, children, and communities of faith."
"What Kayla Craig does with this book (and so much of her work) is to make sentiments a practiced and practicable reality. Every Season Sacred sets me up to more fully know the life-giving presence of God, inch by inch and moment by moment. What a gift."
"Kayla has written the book I have been in search of. Her words invite us into a space of exhale in a way that is accessible even for a mom like me. A space for a sometimes weary, sometimes jubilant, always deeply grateful mother to turn to, in every season. I know I will be dipping into this book often for many years to come, likely for the rest of my life. I hope it is welcomed into the homes of every family."
