From “Spice to Eternity” is one of the
most fascinating books I have read in a long time. The subtitle, Discovering the Main Ingredient to a Life of
Fulfillment and Purpose, is aptly titled. One of the senses less often thought
about in our relationship with Jesus and the heavenly Father is taste. In Spice
to Eternity—part memoir, part inspirational, part cooking, and part educational—Yvonne
Pat Wright captures this ingredient in an enjoyable journey through her life of
cooking and spiritual enlightenment.
How much do you know about spices? You
won’t look at cinnamon and cumin and dozens more spices the same way again!
Here is a “taste” of From Spice to Eternity about Vanilla from chapter
one “Incomparable Love”:
“Vanilla: What a flavor! It is probably
the most exotic of all the spices, and this is no wonder, as the vanilla beans
are the pods of the tropical orchid plant Vanilla Planifolia. Vanilla is called
‘The spice of love.’…like the long process of curing vanilla, love affairs –especially
those that endure—develop over a long time, the longer the process, the more
precious the love that ensues.”
Chapter titles include “Joy Fulfilled,” “Fiery
Trials” (guess what spice is highlighted in this chapter), “Made Brand New,” and
“He Gave His Life.”
Have you ever wondered what spice would
symbolize honor? It’s in one of the chapters I listed above.
I can’t say enough good things about
this book. On Tuesday, August 21, Yvonne
Pat Wright will be launching Spice to
Eternity on Amazon. If you purchase her book on that day, you will receive many
free eBooks/gifts. The books are a secret, but I will share one now— the John
3:16’s highly touted Taste and See book
featuring over 60 authors (533 pages). Check back here on Tuesday for the link.
