“Seth and I are too old now to not write that way.” Such a nod of recognition. With you and for you the whole way through, Amber. Couldn’t be more excited for the book.
Thank you for writing this out. I am so sorry for all the pain, yet deeply grateful that your former church did what needed to be done. Eventually. We are now ‘churching’ on line each week with the WNC and are moved to tears almost every week. I am sure they are not perfect - no church is. Far from it! But they are doing a whole lotta things right and it has helped so much to see it being done that way. (I, too, loved parenting teens and young adults!)
I wish to complain that the pre-ordering process took nearly a full minute. This was entirely too slow to grant my enthusiasm full expression, so I lit a small fire in my coffee mug and danced around it. Turns out I’m not supposed to do that in my office...
(Ok, so maybe that’s not exactly what happened. But I sure am excited to read more from you guys.)
Sometimes you don't realize how much you've missed someone's voice until you hear it again. I've missed your writing voice, Amber. Preordered and already looking forward to hearing you and Seth tell your story. We are all at the age now where we need the truest stories and the grittiest hope to keep going. Thank you for yours.
Over the moon for this! Cannot WAIT to read it. Put me on the short list of shouters-from-rooftops. Your motherlove essay is still reverberating in powerful ways, btw. I'm hearing from people about it all the time - what a gift it is for us to share your words.
Well today happened to suck, and I am wishing I had your book on my nightstand right now. Will be ordering as soon as my Lenten fast from ‘ordering all of the things’ is over. Thank you for the grit. And yes. Too old to not write that way. Same.

I like that our Cairns are the firsts on the scene here ;)
Totally thought the same thing! Nobody fiercer for cheering each other on.
You guys are the best. Thank you.
This whole letter feels and reads like grace. Proud of you, friend. I can’t wait to read your words.
Thank you, Morgan. You were there for so much. Love you.

I’m obsessed with this cover and so excited to read this book. ❤️
Haley! This means a lot coming from you. <3
Can you hear me cheering all the way from NY?! Yes yes yes.
Same, same, same.

LOL. Josh, don't burn anything down! Not yet.
So very excited for y'all's book! 🙌
I pre-ordered. ❤️
Thank you so much, Arianne.
Just pre-ordered and can't wait to read!
Thank you, Laura!
Just pre-ordered...Because I love your writing and because believe in you and the gritty kind of hope. Love you guys!
You've always led the way in that gritty hope, friend. Thank you.
Looking forward to your book.
Thank you!
The cover is beautiful! I am looking forward to reading it!
Thank you so much!
Oh Amber, Amber, Amber. In this with you for life. I love it all and lament it all and cannot wait to hold this in my hands.
