About Grace Wabuke Klein

I like three things about Grace. There’s actually more, but I’m going to tell you about the first three. First of all, she’s humble. She’s got a voice that carries far in people’s lives because she actually cares about people. Number two, she’s trustworthy. She doesn’t say things just because they’re the right things to say. She says things that are right. Number three, she loves God. This woman has taught me more about loving and loving Jesus than any dozen other people.

It can be devastating to walk through a season of deep pain that seems to stretch on forever. My friend, Grace, knows exactly what this is like, and I do too. That's why I love how she reminds us that every season has its purpose and every winter season eventually turns into spring, summer and fall. For those waiting in the midst of life's unknowns, please take the time to sit with this beautiful book!

Flourish is a must-read gardening guide for sowing, planting, and harvesting spiritual fruit. Drawing on her own life seasons, Grace Klein distills spiritual maturity, practical wisdom, and savvy insight from the Bible. She reminds us that God is always working in us, even in the darkness of winter, and that sustainable growth requires rest, stillness, and patience.

Flourish will help you discover how to live with purpose in the midst of life’s trials and pain. Grace’s story of God’s faithfulness will inspire you to trust Him with your hopes and dreams.

We have had the privilege and joy of being Grace’s pastors for over 20 years while she was on staff with us. We saw firsthand Grace’s unwavering faith and tenacity as she navigated the hardest of times, all the while trusting God and not her circumstances. Grace is gut-wrenchingly candid about her journey about being single for several decades while Mr Right was nowhere in sight. Grace never settled, but instead poured herself into living life to the fullest and walking in divine purpose. Flourish gives the reader powerful, practical insight, motivation and tools to enter into a more intimate relationship with God.

We have very few promises in life, but seasons is one promise from God that we can rest assured in. Each season is strategic in our growth and development as followers of Jesus. This is not to imply the seasons are easy, pain free or without moments of doubt. In Flourish, Grace beautifully weaves us an unexpected tapestry exemplifying an authentic journey through all four seasons: through the darkness, the waiting, the faith, and the surrender. Through her fearless journey we are able glean timeless truths to face our own seasons with strength and patience.

“A must-read… Overflowing with wisdom, fresh perspective, and life-changing paradigm shifts… Will give you strength to live with passion and purpose through every season of life.”

In her book, Grace has masterfully, and with great precision, tackled a topic that many shy away from, in order to bring hope and clarity in a world of ever-changing seasons. She brings out the reality that God really does have the capability to cause us to grow and flourish in each one of those seasons. But there are some key steps, that she reveals, in this book to equip you to accomplish just that. This book will help so many people navigate through the different seasons of their lives so they will not simply exist, but flourish.

Grace has quickly become one of our dearest friends. She lights up every room with her smile and radiates with hope everywhere she goes. At the core of her heart is a humility that runs deep. She has chosen to embrace the ever changing seasons of life with a pure heart - allowing her to see the purpose in each phase. We have watched her allow God to use her voice to become an incredible communicator and her message has already impacted so many many lives. Through her new book, she is going to inspire you to FLOURISH in all that God has planned for your life.

Grace has put her cards of transparency on the table for us to see how to survive when we do not have the answers, and how to create momentum in each of the four seasons that develop a thriving harvest on the other side of difficult seasons of our lives. Even if you are not in a winter season right now, Flourish provides the tools necessary that will allow the reader to develop the muscle memory needed to succeed well beyond survival when those hard times come upon us.

Flourish is a gift. Grace Klein has been blessed with an exceptional and unique ability of seeing every person who crosses her path and loving them exactly where they are. She, with uncommon candor and kindness, shares the story of her life in a way that is guaranteed to bless and minister deeply to many, and I am so excited for you to read this book and to see Grace’s heart printed on every page.

Infused with wisdom, Grace’s beautiful writing is an invitation, in the face of time, to be resilient, outrageously devoted to life in the Hands of a gracious God. Pivotal life episodes, harsh realities, moments of kindness, the journey of grief and especially love – both large and small are distinctive marks of time found here. We can live through Grace’s recognizable seasons of life and confirm that time has a way of shaping our hearts to God’s inevitable plan. My hope is you will find courage in your own heart as you hold this book and be reminded of life’s gentle prodding toward the One who develops us in every season.
