This thought-provoking book invites you to explore the truth of God’s Word and discover how to nurture daily a spirit of gratitude and deep satisfaction.

Is It okay to enjoy this life? Watching a gorgeous sunset. Sharing a laugh with a friend. Tasting a sun-ripened strawberry. Each day is full of opportunities for you to savor the countless gifts the Creator has given.

But do you feel free to delight in God’s abundant gifts, or is your joy sometimes distorted by guilt, fear of idolatry, or simply an overwhelming awareness of sin’s effects on this world?

Trillia Newbell explains how we often miss opportunities to participate in God’s divine delight because we’re discouraged, fixated on selfish fulfillment, or paralyzed by guilt. Enjoy serves as an encouraging reminder of God’s gracious gifts and also challenges women to view all of these gifts—from relationships and careers to food and sex—as reasons to rejoice in the Lord and grow in our understanding and appreciation of who He is.

Enjoy will open your eyes and your heart to the freedom of fully enjoying all God has given us!

A great book that helps the reader understand that they can fully live life. God has a plan for each one of us and we should live our lives fully in His grace and love; fulfilling what He has for us. This book will help the reader understand the possiblilities of this.

In eleven chapters, Newbell looks at how despite living in a fallen world, the Christian should never feel guilty about unwrapping and delighting in the many and varied gifts that God has intended for us to enjoy. This exploration includes our God-ordained enjoyment of (and with) other people, work, possessions, sex (in marriage), food, and more.
Rich with scripture, Enjoy continues to point the reader back to Christ as the ultimate gift of God that we should enjoy in and above everything else. Through the pages of The Enjoy Project (practical application found at the end of each chapter), Enjoy is relevant and readily adopted into the life of every Christian for their good, and God’s glory. This is a great read for individuals or small groups.

“We enjoy because we know that the gift is given by God for our enjoyment.” Trillia J. Newbell’s new book Enjoy provides a Biblical framework for enjoying all aspects of one’s life simply as gifts from God to enjoy. The guilt of enjoyment is removed as she shows how God intended for us to be content and to enjoy His gifts. Each chapter details an action plan for her “Enjoy Project” which is simply offered as a guide towards enjoyment of life and not a rigid to do list that must be followed. Enjoy covers many topics such as friendships, money, food, work, and rest. The journey through these topics is full of freedom and grace. I highly recommend this book as one to be savored and reviewed often. I received this book from Blogging for Books for this review.
