Honest Answers to the Questions
You’re Afraid to Ask
Where to begin
What's included in the free 10-question guide?
The free guide walks you through ten of the questions new believers ask most often, the kind that can feel too risky to say out loud in a small group. It's a low-pressure first step if you're not ready for the full book yet, or want a preview of how I approach these topics.
Which Bible translation do you use?
I use the New King James Version throughout. It stays close to the original wording while still reading clearly, which matters when we're working through passages that are easy to misunderstand. If you read a different translation, you'll still be able to follow along.
How do I get started?
Start with the free 10-question guide or you can go straight to the book if you're ready to dig in. Either way, you don't have to have it all figured out to begin.
If you're just starting out
I have a lot of doubts about my faith. Is this book still for me?
Yes. Doubt isn't the opposite of faith; it's usually part of growing into it. This book was written specifically for new believers working through real questions.
Do I need to know the Bible well before I start?
Not at all. You don't need a theology background or years of church experience to read this book. It's written for someone standing at the beginning of their faith, wondering where to start and whether it's okay to ask hard questions. I'm here to let you know, it is.
What if I'm not sure I even believe yet?
You're still welcome here. This book doesn't assume you've settled everything, it assumes you're willing to look. A lot of people start reading somewhere between hoping it's true and not being sure. That's a real place to start, and God isn't put off by it.
What if I've been hurt by the church?
Then you're not alone, and this isn't a book that will ask you to pretend it didn't happen. Being wounded by people who represented God is its own kind of grief. This book is about Jesus, not about defending everything that's been done in His name.
Is it okay to ask questions I'm embarrassed by?
Yes. That's the entire reason this book exists. The questions that feel too blunt, or too late to be asking, are usually the ones holding everything else up. You're allowed to bring them.
