For Lisa Velthouse’s whole life, Christianity had been about getting things right. Obeying her parents. Not drinking. Not cursing. Not having premarital sex. Vowing to save her first kiss until she got engaged, even writing a book called Saving My First Kiss (which, it turns out, does not help a girl get a date). Yet after two decades of trying to earn God’s love, she found her faith was lonely, empty, and unsatisfying. Craving Grace is the true story of how God used a bitter heart, a broken promise, and the sweetness of honey to reveal the stunning wonder that is grace.
