For Church Leaders

❋

Help your congregation trust God when life doesn’t make sense.

A ready-to-use resource for the conversations your people may be struggling to begin.

Someone in your church is carrying a loss, an unanswered prayer, or a disappointment they don’t know how to talk about. You want to help them bring those questions to God and find support in community. But creating a meaningful series, gathering discussion materials, and equipping leaders takes time.

Honest to God: Daring to Trust When You Don’t Understand gives you a place to begin. Through honest stories and practical resources, you can invite your congregation into conversations about trusting God in the middle of uncertainty.

As you place these resources in your community’s hands, you’re also helping create opportunities for young adults in other communities.

  • "Honest to God invites readers to look back and own the most broken elements of their story, encounter God's healing work in the present, and step towards a future marked by his grace and glory. This resource is practical, accessible, and a go-to for serving people in your church and community questioning what God is doing when life doesn't make sense."

    — Luke Crawford, Campus Pastor, Connexus Church, Orillia, Ontario

  • "I absolutely loved preaching through Honest to God. The stories and perspectives on Romans and Exodus were fantastic. What I especially appreciated was the way the book narrowed in on one aspect of trials and suffering at a time, whether it was disappointment, feeling forgotten, or dealing with feelings of inadequacy. People were genuinely grateful for the series and deeply impacted by both the messages and the book."

    — Nick Brzozowski, Senior Pastor, Anchor Church, Urbana Illinois

  • "For pastors looking for a series that meets people where they are, especially people who are hurting or skeptical, I recommend it without hesitation. We'll be putting the series and the book in the hands of people for years to come."

    — Jeff Brodie, Senior Pastor, Connexus Church, Barrie, Ontario
