I Guess I Haven’t Learned That Yet Discovering New Ways of Living When the Old Ways Stop Working

Description

Just after her fortieth birthday, award-winning author Shauna Niequist found herself in a season of chaos, change, and loss unlike anything she had ever experienced. Suddenly, many of the beliefs and practices that had been useful in her life no longer worked. After trying–and failing–to move forward using the same old tools, she realized she required new ones: courage, curiosity, and self-compassion.

Shauna writes about the painful process of unlearning what is no longer helpful, embracing curiosity, and making peace with the unknowns midlife, heartbreak, and unexpected health issues, with a major life move with her family to New York City in the midst of it all. She shares candidly about the challenges and blessings she has experienced and invites us to explore what happens when we release our expectations for how we thought life would look and open ourselves up to the freedom and peace that come with choosing to be a beginner again.

Whether you’re trying to navigate a move to a new city, a period of grief, or a season of redefining and reshaping your faith, in Shauna’s honest reflections you’ll find hope for healing and encouragement to begin again. Discover that life is more about questions than answers, more about forgiveness than force, more about tenderness than trying hard.
