There are so many gold nuggets in this book。 "We no longer begrudge the monotony of a routine life because hygge compels us to find the extra of each ordinary moment。" Every morning with my kids doesn't have to be viewed as mundane。 It is a gift to be with them， enjoying life together， learning together， and growing in our relationship with Jesus together。 Holy Hygge also really opened my eyes to viewing hospitality not only through the secular Danish tradition of hygge， but even more importantl There are so many gold nuggets in this book。 "We no longer begrudge the monotony of a routine life because hygge compels us to find the extra of each ordinary moment。" Every morning with my kids doesn't have to be viewed as mundane。 It is a gift to be with them， enjoying life together， learning together， and growing in our relationship with Jesus together。 Holy Hygge also really opened my eyes to viewing hospitality not only through the secular Danish tradition of hygge， but even more importantly through scripture。 I was challenged。。。in a great way！ I'm slowly looking at my house wondering what can be done differently to make it more welcoming and inviting not only to outsiders， but to my own family。 A desire to be hospitable has been awakened inside me！ Added bonus: This book is gorgeous！ Pictures don't do it justice。 So thank you Jamie！ This is a book I will turn to again and again。 I know I will get something new out of it each time I read it！ 。。。more

Excellent book。 Inspires me to continue to find ways to be hospitable， share the Gospel with my actions， and grow deeper community。 Will add more to my review soon。 09/12/22

Holy Hygge is such a well timed read for a world that is hell-bent on hustle， while desperate for rest。⁠ The word "Hygge" has been commandeered by marketing teams， without an consideration as to what it truly is。 The creation of home as a place for deep rest and relationship。Jamie does a truly fantastic job of explaining how the basic principles of "hygge" fit perfectly within what Christ has asked of us as Christians， to create a space for those around us to feel His love through us。 Holy Hygge is such a well timed read for a world that is hell-bent on hustle， while desperate for rest。⁠ The word "Hygge" has been commandeered by marketing teams， without an consideration as to what it truly is。 The creation of home as a place for deep rest and relationship。Jamie does a truly fantastic job of explaining how the basic principles of "hygge" fit perfectly within what Christ has asked of us as Christians， to create a space for those around us to feel His love through us。 。。。more

Holy Hygge is one of those books I will return to time and time again for fresh ideas and reminders。 This book is a feast of ideas of why hygge brings value to our homes and lives and is also a buffet of ideas for implementation。 It is a sort of cross between Sally and Sarah Clarkson’s “The Lifegiving Home” and Rosaria Butterfield’s “The Gospel Comes with a Housekey。” The author does an excellent job of explaining the tenets of hygge and showing how the align with different attributes and actio Holy Hygge is one of those books I will return to time and time again for fresh ideas and reminders。 This book is a feast of ideas of why hygge brings value to our homes and lives and is also a buffet of ideas for implementation。 It is a sort of cross between Sally and Sarah Clarkson’s “The Lifegiving Home” and Rosaria Butterfield’s “The Gospel Comes with a Housekey。” The author does an excellent job of explaining the tenets of hygge and showing how the align with different attributes and actions of God and with Jesus’ earthly ministry。 I especially appreciate how she encouraged a lifestyle of serving others in our homes but in a way that is also restorative not depleting to the one serving。I would highly recommend this book to anyone longing to make their home a place of comfort and a place that points others to Christ。 。。。more

Such a truly beautifully written book that is helping guide me to stop focusing on the outward appearance of my home and life and focus more on my blessings and the God who blesses me。 With each prayer at the end of the chapters， I am more and more encouraged to not dwell on the amount of things I own but more on my hospitality and kindness towards others。 This has changed my mindset and I am re reading each section to absorb more and remind myself what my true goals are。 Inspirational and writt Such a truly beautifully written book that is helping guide me to stop focusing on the outward appearance of my home and life and focus more on my blessings and the God who blesses me。 With each prayer at the end of the chapters， I am more and more encouraged to not dwell on the amount of things I own but more on my hospitality and kindness towards others。 This has changed my mindset and I am re reading each section to absorb more and remind myself what my true goals are。 Inspirational and written to be utilized but not in a dreaded check list type of way。 。。。more
