Hoping for Something Better

Refusing to Settle for Life as Usual

About this book

Do you ever wrestle with a nagging sense of disappointment or find yourself longing for something better in your faith life?

Who wants to merely go through the motions of religion? We long for something authentic?something worth opening our hearts to, filling our minds with, and giving our lives for. We hope for something better than the "churchianity" of our parents and the vague spirituality of our neighbors, something better than guilt-induced, holier-than-thou morality, better than here-and-now, health-and-wealth promises.

In her thought-provoking and authentic style, Nancy Guthrie shows that Jesus himself offers the something better we've been looking for, applying the truths of Hebrews to real-life issues such as guilt, shame, disappointment, hardship, unhealthy obsessions, personal ambition, and fear of death. A deep dive into the character of our Savior, this book offers:

  • A guide for reinvigorating your spiritual life and building a closer relationship with God
  • Biblical insights on finding true freedom and rest
  • A 10-week Bible study guide for small groups or personal use

Join Nancy as she applies the ancient wisdom of Hebrews to our very real needs of today—the needs for significance, security, and hope for the future—and encourages us to refuse to settle for anything less than the something better we've been hoping for all along.
