These elements compliment each other and give a powerful example of how the practices and application of Yoga can have a positive impact on an individual. Her story is inspiring in itself, the fact that she got through the adversities and losses and found a path that many would not have, the chapters about the philosophy of yoga make her story relatable. It would seem like a fluke otherwise, but understanding more about the history, the eight limbs, the different practices, it makes her path seem like it was intentional. She did the work, which makes it attainable for others." Sarah Turner

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.

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.
