Synopsis

What do I do when I don’t know what to do?

Have you ever found yourself in an unexpected season? Struggling with fear, uncertainty, and an unknown future? And thinking to yourself (and saying to God): This is not what I signed up for.

From counselor and Bible teacher Nicole Unice comes a book for when you feel scared, helpless, and in over your head. In Not What I Signed Up For, Nicole takes us on a journey through the biblical story of Joseph―thirteen years of conflict, abandonment, and captivity―to help us see how God uses life’s hard times, twists, turns, and in-between spaces to grow something essential in our souls. With honest vulnerability, she’ll help you learn to: Move forward when every choice feels impossible. Persevere when you have no idea how your story will end. Recognize signposts of hope in times of doubt, anxiety, and disappointment Develop a sense of purpose and a resilient faith as you walk through seasons of uncertainty As you witness Joseph’s eventual restoration and redemption unfold in an entirely different way than what he must have expected, you’ll find the strength, hope, and perspective to navigate a season you didn’t sign up for.

Not What I Signed Up For also makes a perfect gift for anyone in need of spiritual encouragement.

I genuinely appreciate the perspective and thoughtfulness that Nicole brought to the story of Joseph. This book didn't even remotely feel like 200+ pages of Bible story; it was somehow personal.
