I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die
Author: Sarah J. Robinson

ISBN: 0593193539
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 257
Book Description
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.

Editorial Reviews "Through a compelling weave of Linda's clear, insightful, and engaging prose and Hakan's heartfelt, lyrical, and poetic responses, the authors of Illumination invite the reader on their journey from the initial diagnosis of Linda's breast cancer through the first year of treatment. Along the way, they share the thoughts, feelings, questions, and experiences that lead them to choose light, love, and life fully embraced in the present moment. Cancer patients, survivors, family members, and caregivers, as well as anyone facing unexpected professional or personal challenges will find comfort and inspiration in the passages that document the decisions they faced, the milestones they crossed, and the lessons they learned with grace, humor, and gratitude." Dr. Michelle Beauclair, Associate Professor (of French & Francophone Studies) and Author, Seattle Pacific University "Totally engaging from the very first page, I couldn't put this book down. Linda writes fearlessly about her battle with cancer, the invasive treatments, and their many side effects, all while extracting meaning and sometimes surprising observations from her experience with the disease. Adding context and providing the caregiver's point of view, her husband Håkan shares his unwavering love, encouragement, as well as feelings of helplessness through poetry and anecdotes from their lives. As we follow their adventures together, we are left with hope, light, and a strong urge to live a fulfilling life." Jaeha Choi, Playwright, Stage Director, Entrepreneur, and International Educator "The authors' self-reflections, and observations about who we are as people and, more importantly, who we can be is inspiring. Linda moves beyond herself and shows that this is not the story of a cancer survivor, it is the story of all of us, of getting through life with compassion and of knowing that life is for living."

Book Description
From the USA TODAY bestselling author of Sweet Thing and Nowhere But Here comes a love story about a Craigslist “missed connection” post that gives two people a second chance at love fifteen years after they were separated in New York City. To the Green-eyed Lovebird: We met fifteen years ago, almost to the day, when I moved my stuff into the NYU dorm room next to yours at Senior House. You called us fast friends. I like to think it was more. We lived on nothing but the excitement of finding ourselves through music (you were obsessed with Jeff Buckley), photography (I couldn’t stop taking pictures of you), hanging out in Washington Square Park, and all the weird things we did to make money. I learned more about myself that year than any other. Yet, somehow, it all fell apart. We lost touch the summer after graduation when I went to South America to work for National Geographic. When I came back, you were gone. A part of me still wonders if I pushed you too hard after the wedding… I didn’t see you again until a month ago. It was a Wednesday. You were rocking back on your heels, balancing on that thick yellow line that runs along the subway platform, waiting for the F train. I didn’t know it was you until it was too late, and then you were gone. Again. You said my name; I saw it on your lips. I tried to will the train to stop, just so I could say hello. After seeing you, all of the youthful feelings and memories came flooding back to me, and now I’ve spent the better part of a month wondering what your life is like. I might be totally out of my mind, but would you like to get a drink with me and catch up on the last decade and a half? M
