Praise for Live Big, Love Bigger

“You may think your own family is far from perfect, and perhaps have never considered them ‘holy.’ If so, then this book is for you.”

"Whitaker’s enjoyable mix of spiritual fervor and homespun humor will appeal to Christian readers and general audiences alike."

“Real, transparent, and inspiring.”

“In Live Big, Love Bigger, Kathryn Whitaker invites us into the sacred story of her life with God, family, and friends. The birth of the Whitaker’s son Luke called her to suffering, a more intimate relationship with God, and ultimately to a whole new life. Her story is one of dying to self in order to live for Christ and her husband, children, and friends. People of faith have influenced Whitaker; by her life and these reflections, she influences others and calls them to value family and grow in faith. Whitaker’s story enables us to get in touch with our own sacred story and discover anew God’s incredible love often shown by the other people he places in our lives.”

“With the tone of a friend sitting down with you for some BBQ and real talk, Kathryn Whitaker shows us how to dream big and keep our sanity in the process.” 

“This book is a gorgeous read, a shot in the arm, and a balm for the weary soul! Kathryn Whitaker’s writing is truly a gift. With honesty and hilarity, she shares own struggles and leads to deep insights that will touch your heart and inspire you to be a better wife, mom, and daughter of God. We are in this struggle together, and Kathryn Whitaker is our beloved Texan cheerleader, encouraging us with uncommon humility, wisdom, and grace."

“Kathryn Whitaker writes just likes she loves—with conviction! With sweet Southern style she shares openly about her faith and fears, triumphs and trials of raising her Texas-size family. Live Big, Love Bigger will leave you empowered to live a more authentic life by making space for a little more Jesus and a lot more love. BBQ sauce not included." 

“In Live Big, Love Bigger Kathryn Whitaker digs deep into her Texas sized heart, taking us on an adventure, encouraging us to live with intention, love with abandon, and showing us how to see the face of Christ in all we meet.  Life is messy, filled with obstacles and uncertainty, but Whitaker shows that if we let go and let God in, we are able to embrace the hard things and allow them to transform and heal us. Whitaker uses her southern wit and sass to prove over and over that with BBQ, sweet tea, and a whole lot of Jesus we can do more than just survive this life — we can live bolder and love bigger than we ever thought possible."
