Make plans now for a special lunchtime respite to study Rachel Held Evans’s last book Wholehearted Faith. This is the book she was working on at the time of her passing. Feel free to bring a snack or lunch and a drink. Book can be purchased on Amazon. For questions and the Zoom Room Invitation, email [email protected] or [email protected].

At the time of her tragic death in 2019, Rachel was working on a new book about wholehearted faith. With the help of her close friend and author Jeff Chu, that work-in-progress has been woven together with some of her other unpublished writings into a rich collection of essays that ask candid questions about the stories we’ve been told—and the stories we tell—about our faith, our selves, and our world.

This book is for the doubter and the dreamer, the seeker and the sojourner, those who long for a sense of spiritual wholeness as well as those who have been hurt by the Church but can’t seem to let go of the story of Jesus. Through theological reflection and personal recollection, Rachel wrestles with God’s grace and love, looks unsparingly at what the Church is and does, and explores universal human questions about becoming and belonging.
