Geoff McEwen, a US Navy Vietnam veteran, has been married twice and divorced twice. After his second divorce, his address became the interstate with a series of moves in a pattern of figure eights. Wherever he was, he needed to be someplace else. Self-imprisoned by his self-doubts, insecurities, and self-deprecation, he settled into a life of introspection, questioning his choices and beliefs and searching for something even he could not define. It was like living in the rearview mirror while life flashed bye* the windshield, being spectator rather than participating. On a December night in a Montana bar, Geoff finds a reason to reconnect with life, triggering a journey through his past experiences and old animosities. *Bye is used here in the sense of moving on with life without participationas in the bye weeks of football.

How can life continue when the desire to live is ripped away? That's the question William McConnelly grapples with every day. He is frozen in time on the night his wife and son die in a house fire. Although his body goes through the motions of living, his reality resides in the past. By the time his father-in-law asks him to scatter Cara's and Sam's ashes in the Irish hills of his homeland, Will has lost all ties to America and life. After all, he can rejoin his lost family in the hills of Drumkeeran as easily as he can in Fort Worth, Texas. So, out of respect for all his father-in-law has suffered and done for him, Will agrees to the request and flies to Ireland. Even before his plane touches the tarmac, the ancient magic of Irish lore awakens to Will's desperate need. But is magic and an emerging belief in leprechauns and fairies enough to restore an interest in life, or are the dangerous quests Will undertakes in his reckless search for peace the final proof of his insanity?

A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.
