"Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart."―Psalm 37:4
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?
Delighting in God changes everything: how you experience your faith, relationships, and circumstances―and even how you see yourself.
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.

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.

What people are saying:
Â
Amanda Jenkins
Author, Speaker, Co-creator of THE CHOSEN
"I have yet to meet another person quite as eager to intimately know Jesus as Stephanie is. Her enthusiasm for the beauty found inside a thriving relationship with her Savior is downright contagious. 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."

Erica Wiggenhorn
Author, Speaker, Bible teacher
"I find the faith of someone who first experiences Christ later in life marvelously refreshing. Toss that in with some French flair and you have a recipe for fresh faith. Stephanie grew up an atheist in France, lived all over the world and brings a fresh fusion of faith to those of us who find ourselves munching on the stale bread of familiarity. Awaken Delight invites you to experience Christ in all of His fullness, transforming your relationship with Him into something truly beautiful."Â
Meet Stephanie Rousselle
Stéphanie Rousselle is the founder of Gospel Spice Ministries and author of Awaken Delight. Her motto is, “God’s glory, our delight!” She thrives on Bible-centered inspirational writing and speaking, and dark chocolate. She knows herself too well to take herself seriously...
Born and raised in France, she has lived for her One over the last two decades on three continents, four countries, and five cities through six professional roles. She is a wife, mom, podcaster, public speaker, Bible teacher, former women’s ministry director, and strategy consultant. And she is 100% French.
She loves sharing nuances taken from the French and English languages and cultures to experience the New Testament from the inside out. She has quoted her favorite words more times than she can count, first to herself and her children, and then also in settings as diverse as Bible studies, conferences, podcasts and more: “There is nothing you can do for God to love you more; and there is nothing you can do for God to love you less.” Her favorite verse and passion is Philippians 3:10: “For my determined purpose is to know Christ, through the power of His resurrection and the fellowship in His suffering.”
