Strength for the Table

Here's a KDP description for the listing, built from your back-cover copy and the book's actual contents - and worded carefully so it never promises weight loss or health outcomes, in keeping with your guardrails.

Nourish your body. Strengthen your faith. Pull up a chair.

Strength for the Table brings together 120 satisfying, high-protein, calorie-conscious recipes with honest spiritual encouragement for everyday life - written by a pastor and a family nurse practitioner who are walking this road themselves, not preaching from the finish line.

There are no impossible ingredients here, no punishing rules, and no "good food/bad food" shame. Just real meals from a real Southern kitchen - biscuits and gravy included - rebuilt to serve your strength, alongside Scripture and reflections that trade perfectionism for grace, stewardship, and the freedom to begin again.

Inside you'll find:

• 120 recipes across five parts: breakfasts, lunches, dinners, snacks, and high-protein sweet treats - most with 25-40+ grams of protein per serving
• A devotion with every recipe - Scripture and reflection drawn from the table itself: grace, patience, fellowship, rest, hospitality, and beginning again
• Practical wellness guidance in every entry, plus storage, reheating, substitution, and budget tips
• Nutrition estimates for calories, protein, carbohydrates, fat, and fiber with every dish
• Four weeks of meal plans with weekly grocery lists
• A church fellowship and potluck guide, make-ahead and freezer index, and recipes indexed by protein source, calorie range, and Scripture

Whether you're cooking for a full table, a busy week, or a fresh start, these pages offer familiar ingredients, plain directions, and the encouragement to keep showing up - one meal, one movement, one prayer, and one faithful choice at a time.

Rev. J. Brad Puckett is a pastor and Christian counselor. Dr. Amy Cravey, DNP, APRN, FNP-C is a family nurse practitioner and Christian counselor. Together they create books at the intersection of honest faith and everyday life through ARAD Productions.

We are not serving perfection at this table. We are serving nourishing food, honest faith, and the grace to keep going.
