This is the Daily Dose of Inspiration we all Need
Bob Goff is a magician when it comes to changing the way we view the world and the people in it. The title of this book is the perfect example of his skills. When we think of growing deeper in our faith, our mind might conjure up images of stern-faced theologians, laboring over complex texts, and approach it with anxiously with feeling of shame of falling short of where we need to be. In Catching Whimsy, Bob does the exact opposite. Every day of this 365-day challenge takes us on an adventure of what we can become and how we can adjust our vision to see others and ourselves the way God sees us – as incredible creations made in His image. The introduction to the book sets the tone, “we can’t catch what we don’t chase”. If we are going to change our lives, we have to be intentional about it and Catching Whimsy gives us the roadmap to do that. Change can be daunting, but this book gives us the tools to achieve true change. Each day Bob engages the reader by painting a picture that is universally relatable and ending with a practical question or challenging thought that can be easily applied. The daily, dated readings begin with a memorable title and thought, acting as banks to a river that guide the reader gently without imposing rigid opinions, allowing us to navigate the waters of self-refinement and reflection. Examples of daily titles are “Pursue Your Purpose and Stop Worrying about Everyone Else”, “Stop Putting in the Microwave What needs to Go into the Crockpot” and “Wanna Meet Jesus? Feed the Hungry”. Going into a new year, Catching Whimsey is exactly what we need to set aside a short, but meaningful time each day to become more intentional with others, more forgiving toward ourselves and more connected to a God who as Bob says is “over the moon” about us.

Real life, real impact
Often we get caught up in our to-do lists, checking things off, adding things, and giving ourselves (yes, giving ourselves) an overwhelming task list to accomplish that we gauge our successes by. We were not designed to live in a checklist world, though. We were designed to engage, interact, self-care, immerse in God’s grace and find JOY in the days before us.Catching Whimsy is a devotional of hope, real life, and faith all mixed into one. The daily readings are simply and engaging to read, most often producing a returning thought to the topic throughout the rest of the day’s activities. What’s best, is that you FEEL the joy as you read through the verses, stories, and anecdotes. There’s no illusion that life is perfect and checklists aren’t necessary, but each day a few minutes to breath, think, and refocus direction into ‘what about’ is surely an amazing start.

Excellent Book To View Your Life In A More Meaningful Way
Reading a Bob Goff book is always an adventure for me. I ride a roller coaster of emotions as I follow his stories, from laughter to tears, and everyday happenings to deep self-contemplation. I never, not once, complete one of his books without having grown in some area of my life. Catching Whimsy is no exception to this pattern. Everyone needs a daily touch of Bob Goff’s unique way of pointing out Truth. I reviewed the book early so I read it cover to cover. I highly recommend not doing that with this book. It is like being handed your favorite cake, or for the healthier folks, a basket of your favorite fruit. You will not eat the entire cake, or all the fruit in one sitting, but will savor it for as long as it lasts. That is how Catching Whimsy should be read, one devotional per day for the year. Each page is rich in offering us a chance to grow in love with each other, with ourselves, and most importantly with God. Purchase two copies when you order, I can assure you that you will want to share this special book with those you love, and maybe even with someone you are just trying to love. And when you give it to them, tie some balloons around it just to add a touch of whimsy to your gift.
