What happens when you mix Broadway with a reality show about convents with a young woman discerning her vocation?

The answer is one of the best spiritual books I have read in 2025.

Adventure Awaits: How to Interpret Your Desires and Hear God's Voice by Stacey Sumereau is part memoir, part guidebook, but all quite fascinating.

Sumereau fulfilled my childhood dreams by appearing as a musical theater actress, so I have a great deal of respect for her. That she would even consider giving up the limelight to serve God is a testament to the depth of her character and her spirituality.

Adventure Awaits can be especially helpful to a Gen Z-er trying to figure out the Lord's plan for his or her best life. The author is a cheerleader for assisting the reader in drawing closer to God and His amazing designs.

This book was an absolute delight to read and I cannot recommend it highly enough!
