Joyce Rupp is well known for her work as a writer, spiritual midwife, international retreat leader, and conference speaker. She wrote Fresh Bread—originally published in 1985—several years after she began her ministry. It was the first of her numerous bestselling books and has sold more than 135,000 copies.
Fresh Bread remains especially relevant in today’s chaotic and fragile world: Rupp urges you to be as faithful to your spiritual nourishment and your relationship with God as you are to feeding your body. This careful attention to your soul will help you sustain hope and inner peace in your life.
Each chapter includes a reflection, poetry, and prayer that encourage you to rejoice in the sacred, everyday world that is around and within you.
