Book Overview

From an author and podcaster, an "invaluable and hilarious" memoir-in-essays about learning to understand that we can't earn God's love no matter how hard we try, and learning to accept the grace that is freely given (Jennifer Dukes Lee).

Growing up, Kimberly Stuart got really good at strapping on her spiritual tap shoes and trying to be a star for Jesus. She could sing all the songs, ace the sword drills, and knew all the right theology. From earning creepy Jesus paperweights in her church's faux Girl Scout program to trying to calm an actual storm on the Mediterranean, she was doing her best . . . and still found herself longing for something more. She didn't mean to completely ignore the most beautiful tenets of her faith--the unwavering grace and tenacious love of God--but she did. Which, of course, was the problem. Her best was lackluster, and God wasn't looking for a star performer anyway.

Star for Jesus (And Other Jobs I Quit), is an invitation for readers to spot unvarnished, amazing grace when they see it. With her trademark wit and transparency, Stuart brings readers through moments that teach us to cling to the fierce love of God instead of the flimsier versions we find elsewhere. With unflinching honesty and relatable humor, Stuart encourages readers to take another look at unrelenting grace, and why this moment in history is the perfect time to extend no-strings-attached grace to an emotionally bedraggled, wary world.
