What makes this such a stellar read is not only is Marla aware of who she is, but she's finally got to the point where she's unabashedly ready to tell us as well!" -Tyler Merritt, author of I Take My Coffee Black and Creator of The Tyler Merritt ProjectWhen you've spent your entire life defined by your faith, who are you when that faith shatters, leaving you to pick up broken pieces, wondering if anything can be saved? Marla Taviano--author, single mom, and former Christian--set out on a journey to find out. What she uncovered was that, after deconstructing a toxic belief system and working to dismantle systems of injustice, some things hadn't changed. She still loved people and wanted them to be free and whole--and she wanted that for herself too. It just looked different now. So whole: poems on reclaiming the pieces of ourselves and creating something new talks about looking back to move forward, new thoughts on god, our inner lives, embodied living, and books, books, books. If you long for the freedom to be your true self, if you ache for healing and wholeness for yourself and a broken world, if you need some lighthearted fun amid all the hard, Marla's got you. This book is a collection of mini-love letter poems to herself and all of us.

"Marla artfully and bravely gives all of us a front row seat to her own deconstruction while also welcoming us and helping us feel safe in our own wildernesses." -Matthew Paul Turner, New York Times bestselling author of What Is God Like?When you start to doubt your once-certain faith, it can feel overwhelming, discouraging, and honestly kind of terrifying.

And she'll be right there beside you on your journey.In her past life, Taviano wrote books for Christians that today make her cringe, but with unbelieve she offers a simple poem on each page that will make you say, simply, "hell yeah." Covering biblical literalism, fundamentalist hypocrisies, racism, LGBTQ+ rights, loving the poor, and so much more, Marla helps you fight for creating new boundaries with toxic beliefs and discovering who you were meant to be.With appendices of amazing book lists, her written apology to Democrats and Jesus, and a bold affirmation of gay marriage, you'll find unbelieve to be a book you return to again and again-whenever you need a friendly companion on the road to heresy and freedom.

Mayfield, author of Unruly Saint: Dorothy Day's Radical Vision and Its Challenge for Our TimesAfter author Marla Taviano wrote unbelieve, a book of poems chronicling her faith deconstruction, her plan was to move on from white evangelical Christianity to bigger, lovelier, more all-embracing thoughts.

With an appendix jam-packed with books to read on your journey, this is a book that will open you up and take you forward. Warning: you might not be able to put it down.Jaded is this former good Christian girl's offering-a labor of anger and love. We might not need to stay here forever, but we need this now.
