“All of us tell ourselves broken stories about who we are and how we’ve been living. I urge you to accept my friend Mallory’s invitation to expand the ways you think about the Divine and live into a better, truer story. It will radically alter your life in beautiful ways!”
— Ian Morgan Cron, author of The Story of You
“For many of us, the word ‘God’ is confusing, even traumatic. With poignant storytelling and spiritual wisdom Mallory Wyckoff leads us tenderly to a place of grace, beauty, and joy. This is a wise, beautiful, and healing book.”
—Richard Beck, author of Hunting Magic Eels: Recovering an Enchanted Faith in a Skeptical Age
“The language we use to describe God shapes the way we relate to God and others. If you want to broaden your God-language to include feminine imagery, I recommend Mallory Wyckoff as a trustworthy guide.”
—Sara Gaston Barton, author of A Woman Called
“There are many who go as far as to name the flaws in traditional American understandings of faith and God, but no further. In this book, Mallory has done the difficult and necessary work of identifying the issues and inviting us to imagine a better way. Mallory is a fierce, funny, and prophetic voice for current and future generations of people deconstructing and reimagining their faith. The book is beautiful, honest, funny, and relentlessly vulnerable. (As a matter of fact, if you see her, kindly ask her to chill out on the funny part and leave some work for the rest of us.)”
—Anthony Russo, creator of The Bible Is Funny
“Mallory Wyckoff is brave to declare that ‘God is’ and then allow her journey and her thoughts to lead her along the path of exploring what that looks and feels like. . . . She is so correct in asserting that God is too large for only one image. This courageous exploration of God and self is a gift to all.”
—Catherine Meeks, coauthor of Passionate for Justice: Ida B. Wells as Prophet for Our Time
“Whether out of reverence or fear (or both), many attempts to talk about God end up feeling like a rigid translation of someone else’s conversation. Mallory Wyckoff dares to speak about the divine mystery from her own experience. The result is an invitation into something both beautiful and disorienting—a language as authentic as the messy reality we all know to be true to life.”
— Jonathan Wilson-Hartgrove, author of Reconstructing the Gospel
“Far too often we place God within boxes that do no justice for the magnitude of God, but those boxes don't just confine God. They also confine us, because a small God makes for small people. Yet the one who drags both God and us out of those confining boxes is God. I bet if you keep your eyes open you will feel the divine hints and images within this brilliant book. Wyckoff has given us all a beautiful gift in God Is that will help us receive the divine invitation to experience God.”
—Luke Norsworthy, pastor, author, podcaster
