"Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart."―Psalm 37:4
Delighting in God changes everything: how you experience your faith, relationships, and circumstances―and even how you see yourself.
What if you've lost your delight in God? Or you've never really experienced it in the first place? What if a season of suffering has snuffed out your joy, leaving you spiritually discouraged and emotionally numb?
Stephanie announces the upcoming release of her new book, AWAKEN DELIGHT: Satisfying Your Soul’s Longing for God, releasing on July 28, 2026 with IVP. The book isn’t just a project—it’s an invitation for YOU to join a new adventure of discovering and sustaining authentic delight in God. This book has been taking shape for years in Stephanie’s heart, and now everyone connected to Gospel Spice is invited to take part.

You can experience Psalm 37:4 as your daily reality. In Awaken Delight, Stephanie Rousselle connects scriptural and theological truth to your everyday life so you can experience what delighting in God really means. It's not about checking boxes on a spiritual to-do list or mustering a constant state of positive feelings. Rather, delight is about satisfying your soul's deepest longing through a vibrant relationship with the living God.
Delight in God is neither a robotic or purely intellectual act, nor just a fleeting emotion. Instead, it arises from the intentional merging of knowledge and experience—head and heart, theology and personal encounter. Delighting in God is a conscious choice, something that not always comes naturally, but must be nurtured. While God could have programmed us to delight in Him, He instead gives us the freedom—and the gracious invitation—to respond and pursue that joy ourselves.
The deepest delight in God grows when theology and experience meet. As Stephanie illustrates using chocolate—the joy isn’t just in knowing about it, but in tasting it. Similarly, knowing God is delightful and tasting that delight through living relationship leads to sustained spiritual joy.
By looking to Christ as your model of divine delight, you can discover that no matter what you're experiencing―whether weariness, sorrow, hope, or happiness―you truly can "taste and see that the Lord is good." If you are longing for a revived faith filled with hope, delight, worth, and grace, Awaken Delight invites you to cultivate a worshipful, life-giving delight in God that's rooted in God's delight in you. Delight in God slays hopelessness and anchors us in His reality.

"Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart." Psalm 37:4 isn't a poetic suggestion — it's a promise. But many believers quietly assume it doesn’t really work, or it's not really possible here on earth.
In Awaken Delight, Stephanie Rousselle invites you to rediscover what Scripture actually means by delight — not emotional hype, not religious performance, but a steady satisfaction rooted in who God is.
Delight in God isn't a mood to manufacture; it's a relationship to receive.
Through biblical theology and practical rhythms, you'll learn how communion with God reshapes suffering, quiets restless striving, and anchors your identity in something unshakable.
Delighting in God isn’t sentimental optimism. It’s deeply rooted in Christ, Jesus.
It’s the quiet revolution that reshapes how we endure pain, love others, and understand our own heart.
Awaken Delight is a theologically grounded spiritual formation book for thoughtful believers who feel spiritually fatigued and are ready to embrace the reality of Psalm 37:4.

Indeed, Stephanie’s joy and faith and commitment to growth—along with her love for really good food!—will implant themselves in the hearts of readers. Lucky readers."
