"Luke Norsworthy's inviting, accessible, and entirely enjoyable new book is an invitation to come to know God better. Or to come to know God for the first time. Highly recommended."-- James Martin, SJ , author of Jesus: A Pilgrimage and The Jesuit Guide "Luke's insight and humor come through his stories and theology in beautifully carved pieces we can savor long after the reading is over. Part memoir, part preaching, part amazing storytelling--it's all a gift offered by a man of great faith who has chosen God over everything."-- Becca Stevens , author, priest, and founder of Thistle Farms "What a generous gift! Norsworthy opens wide the door of his heart to reveal his struggle to find a path through the dark woods of spiritual doubt and uncertainty. In this book, alternately moving and humorous, he doesn't abandon us in the now-all-too-familiar landscape of religious cynicism but instead joyfully leads us into the land of hope and resurrection."-- Ian Morgan Cron , author of The Road Back to You ; host of the podcast Typology "Luke transparently shares the struggle many have with a faith focused on certain answers because that type of faith ends up delivering only more questions.


But Luke doesn't leave us there; he shows us a way to the other side of cynicism. God isn't what we always expect, but God is always beautiful. There is life and love on the other side of simplicity, and Luke guides us toward it."-- Fr. Richard Rohr , author of Everything Belongs and Falling Upward "Luke does such a brave job in this book--telling the truth, asking the questions many of us aren't willing to ask (but hear in our heads), and walking us all toward honesty and freedom and the person we really want to be. God over Good will rescue you in ways you didn't know you needed rescuing."-- Annie F. Downs , bestselling author of 100 Days to Brave and Looking for Lovely.
