Synopsis

"Let me do something for you."

Carrie Stephens offers these words of hope from the heart of God in Jesus, Love, & Tacos as she uses vibrant metaphors and comical self-deprecation to tell the story of lordship, community, and mission. These three ancient values will offer you help and hope as they shape your spiritual life, define how to gather in unity, and lead you to God's missional love in action.

In the face of fear, sickness, and increasing polarization, Carrie provides a fresh encounter with the lordship of Jesus to right-size your expectations and transform your view of your life. By looking at the example of the early church, you'll find yourself brave enough to swallow your insecurities and forge ahead into the sometimes-painful world of the Church where healing and life happen through God's faithfulness.

In this world of never-ending suffering and neediness, reconsider the call to missional living afresh. Living with a mission will reinvigorate your connection to God and others. When you reach for the plates of truth and grace offered in this book, you'll reconnect with a God beyond your comprehension who is intimately involved in the details of your life.

I had so much fun writing this book! I hope you enjoy reading it!
