Words are impactful- as written in Proverbs, life and death are in the power of our tongue. Our words have the power to heal and build up or hurt and tear down. Our goal is to help couples understand the power of their words to one another.

The imagery invoked by the title reminds us of Psalms 23 verse 5, in which David says God has prepared a table before me, anointed my head with oil, and my cup overflows. As human vessels, our cups should overflow with blessing, affirmation, and encouragement for others. Each day we should purposely extend grace from the overflow given to us. We believe, as God gives us grace daily, we should extend grace to others.

We define grace in relationships and life as the space and time we give ourselves and others to grow and develop. Therefore, we see this book as a guide for couples to have gracious and attractive conversations that enlighten, encourage, and affirm each other as they grow and develop in their relationship.
