About this audiobook

Growth begins in the garden. In this fast-paced world, our souls wilt without a place to pause and take root. It becomes easy then to overlook the many reminders of God's abundant life and transformation evident in creation. Inspired by her garden, Laurie V. Soileau shares how to find mindful rest and fruitful flourishing in the Creator's faithful hands. Through 365 devotions entwined with Scripture, reflections, practical tips, and prayers, Bloom and Grow will help you find peace amid seasons of chaos and decay, steward relationships with people and nature, seek the steady presence of the Creator, and thrive where and how God has planted you. Pull on your gardening gloves and discover the strength and renewal revealed in God's breathtaking creation.
