Rachel Evans

  • Inspired : Slaying Giants Walking On Water And Loving The Bible Again

    $19.99

    If the Bible isn’t a science book, instruction manual, or position paper, then what is it? New York Times bestselling author Rachel Held Evans invites readers on a journey of rediscovery as she explores the magic of the Bible, engaging the old, familiar stories in new ways that honor the past and enlighten the present.

    Is the Bible relevant to modern people of faith? This is the question Rachel Held Evans, bestselling author of Searching for Sunday, found herself asking, launching her on a quest to understand better what the Bible is and how it is meant to be read. What she discovered changed her forever.

    Drawing upon recent scholarship and literary analysis, Evans creatively retells our favorite Bible stories, explaining their contexts and possible interpretations, and then connects these ancient stories to our present-day ones. Using her well-honed literary instincts and experience in both evangelical and mainline Protestant traditions, Evans discovers a way of understanding that avoids noncommittal liberalism on one hand and strident literalism on the other. Readers are invited to fall in love with Scripture all over again without checking their intellect–or their imaginations–at the door.

  • Searching For Sunday

    $19.99

    New York Times bestselling author Rachel Held Evans embarks on a quest to find out what it really means to be part of the Church.

    Like millions of her millennial peers, Rachel Held Evans didn’t want to go to church anymore. The hypocrisy, the politics, the gargantuan building budgets, the scandals-church culture seemed so far removed from Jesus. Yet, despite her cynicism and misgivings, something kept drawing her back to Church. And so she set out on a journey to understand Church and to find her place in it.

    Centered around seven sacraments, Evans’ quest takes readers through a liturgical year with stories about baptism, communion, confirmation, confession, marriage, vocation, and death that are funny, heartbreaking, and sharply honest.

    A memoir about making do and taking risks, about the messiness of community and the power of grace, Searching for Sunday is about overcoming cynicism to find hope and, somewhere in between, Church.

  • Faith Unraveled : How A Girl Who Knew All The Answers Learned To Ask Questi

    $19.99

    Eighty years after the Scopes Monkey Trial made a spectacle of Christian fundamentalism and brought national attention to her hometown, Rachel Held Evans faced a trial of her own when she began to have doubts about her faith. In Faith Unraveled, Rachel recounts growing up in a culture obsessed with apologetics, and learns to ask questions she never thought she would ask. In order for her faith to survive, Rachel realizes, it must adapt to change and evolve. Using as an illustration her own spiritual journey from certainty to doubt to faith, Evans challenges readers to disentangle their faith from false fundamentals and to trust in a God who is big enough to handle tough questions. In a changing cultural environment where new ideas seem to threaten the safety and security of the faith, Faith Unraveled is a fearlessly honest story of survival.

  • Year Of Biblical Womanhood

    $19.99

    A strong Christian woman embarks on a radical life experiment-a year of biblical womanhood.

    Strong and committed in her faith-but frustrated by the inconsistencies she saw in her evangelical culture’s view of women-Rachel Held Evans became an independent woman. But, intrigued by the traditionalist resurgence that led many of her friends to abandon their careers to assume traditional gender roles in the home, Evans had a crazy idea:What if I took “biblical womanhood” literally for a full year? In the next twelve months Rachel:
    Wore a scarf over her head to pray
    Called her husband “master” and stood on the roadside with a sign that said “Dan is Awesome”
    Adopted a computerized baby
    Perched on the roof for an afternoon of penance for gossiping
    Camped out in her front yard during her period
    Visited an Amish schoolhouse, a pig farm in Bolivia, and a Benedictine monastery
    Took up baking and knitting
    Interviewed a polygamist, a Quiverfull daughter, and a courtship couple

    With just the right mixture of humor and insight, Evans takes readers along with her on a lively adventure. In the process she discovers that the journey itself leads her right to the heart of God.
