Dove Award winning singer Cindy Morgan is gearing up to release her latest book, How Could I Ask For More: Stories of Blessings, Battles and Beauty, on August 4 from Worthy Publishing.

The book is inspired by Morgan's career-defining song, "How Could I Ask For More," and the 224-page book is a collection of stories celebrating the blessings that compose a rich, full life. The foreword is written by acclaimed singer/songwriter, author and speaker Kelly Minter, each of the 29 chapters depicts defining seasons throughout Morgan's life and the lives of various family and friends, past and present. From her hardscrabble childhood in the mountains of East Tennessee, to adventures as a young woman finding her way in the music business, to the wit and wisdom gained as a wife and mother of teenage daughters, Morgan's vignettes challenge readers to embrace God's blessings in every form.

"Sometimes the most extraordinary things are just the ordinary things that we finally see the true worth of," Morgan wrote in the book's introduction. "Like a rising moon, a child's smile, or your mother's voice. I don't want to lose that way of seeing. And I want to remind myself of the things in life that matter. Of what I have learned from loss and heartache and the beauty that often follows after loss."

"I want to tell you what my own journey has taught me," she continued. "Stories of how God has shown Himself to me. Moments when I have walked away from God and what the road looked like walking back. I want to share my fears and my longings and those rare moments when you catch a glimpse of the truth."
