Live Big, Love Bigger Getting Real With BBQ, Sweet Tea, And A Whole Lot Of Jesus

Let's face it: families can be messy. Even when it comes to perhaps the holiest family we can think of—Jesus, his Blessed Mother, and St. Joseph—holiness does not equal perfection. You may think your own family is far from perfect, and may have never considered them “holy.” If so, this book is for you.

In Live Big, Love Bigger, Kathryn Whitaker takes you on a journey with her very own holy family: from a bumpy ride of emergency surgeries for a premature baby to a pilgrimage to find the best BBQ joint in Texas. Hers is an adventure of humility and grace; of being truly present to those you love as well as to those you meet along the way.

"Mess” is a concept that Whitaker, the mother of six children, is well-acquainted with. But this holy mom humbly admits that no solvent or shelving unit will take care of cleaning her spiritual house. She knows that it's only when we allow God to do what is in his very essence: to love us, and love us big, both through and in the mess.
