Finally someone who gets it

Reviewed: 08-14-24

As I’ve navigated a path of religious trauma, mental health struggles, and deconstructing a hurtful religion, leading to doubt in God, this book came in and really rocked me. I’m not suddenly full of faith again or suddenly done doubting/questioning, but I felt seen heard and seen and known by Brenna’s story and willingness to say what so many of us have thought. Her vulnerability is what we need more in the Christian world. It made me change my perspective on how I approach where I currently am. I no longer feel villainized for doubting or being angry at the pain I have felt. I laughed, I cried, i became more inquisitive, and I felt peace about things that I haven’t felt in a long time. It’s not a pretty story wrapped up in bows and lace, and I love that. It’s real, it’s raw, it’s honest, and I would recommend reading it! If your like me and on the edge of walking away from faith for good, even after years spent going all in and then being treated horrible for your questions and pain, give this a listen. If nothing else maybe, like me, you will feel like someone out there finally sees you and feels what you do. I don’t know where I’ll land in my journey, but I’m grateful for the perspective shift this book gave me.
