A Spoonful of Grace: Mealtime Blessings in Bite-Sized Pieces

by Annette Hubbell

About two minutes! That’s how long it takes to read each of these mealtime reflections. A Spoonful of Grace is a collection of 366 thought-provoking, gratitude-building, supercharged daily graces. Each prayer is accompanied by a companion Bible verse and a conversation starter—impactful yet brief enough to hold the attention of hungry kids. As part of a well-balanced diet of conversations with God, A Spoonful

 of Grace:

• Sows the seeds of a thankful attitude
• Whets the appetite about the Bible and what’s in it
• Nourishes the heart, mind, and soul
• Taken with food, constitutes a complete meal

“A Spoonful of Grace is a response to diminished attention spans wrought by social media and the expectation of instant gratification,” said author Annette Hubbell. “When I tested A Spoonful of Grace out with some families, one said it consumed the entire conversation through dinner. Another family told us that their 15-year-old was appreciating his family more through simply spending more quality time together. …I hope that the book will help turn mealtime into conversations about faith and values such as sharing, honesty, friendship, and honorable conduct.
