Publisher Description
Do you feel like you’re stuck? Do you feel alone? Do you live in fear that your struggles might push others away? Do you wonder if your faith is a fraud because of the emptiness in your soul? Are you weary of trying to play by the rules and pretend that everything is okay?
In Love Well, Jamie George confronts the popular heresy that God’s children are meant to live a life absent of pain, sorrow, or conflict. On the contrary, Jamie passionately describes brokenness as a divine gift and a necessary God-ordained path to experiencing true joy and genuine redemption.
With surprising transparency, Jamie shares his personal journey of getting unstuck and provides reassuring comfort for those looking to move beyond their pain toward a life of connection and grace.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
George's debut book is an encouraging guide for how to get "unstuck" and live life "unrehearsed." Part memoir, part how-to, George delves into his personal struggles, including problems in his marriage and his reluctance to become a pastor, to illustrate how those living within the Christian faith (and outside it) can let go and move forward: "To truly live by faith, one must be comfortable living in the tension of not knowing." Through scripture, personal story, and pop-culture references, George advises living in the tension of uncertainty, naming hidden shame, and openness as key practices of getting unstuck. With an emphasis on vulnerability and self-forgiveness, his lessons about letting go and maturing spiritually make for a compassionate reminder and a potent guide.

MUST READ!!!
I found this author from my UVerse bible app. Excellent read. I highly recommend. If you have been through a trial, going through one now or need preparation, this book is for you ! Jamie offers great biblical application through his own personal struggles.

Vulnerable & Healing
I'm so thankful for the stories in this book & for Jamie's willingness to be vulnerable in exposing both the joys & the struggles of being a pastor & husband.
I have personally seen his leadership up close. Jamie is a friend, a mentor, a life coach, my boss, & my pastor.His ability to tell story & to reframe the Gospel through a narrative lens has allowed me to experience God's love story with fresh eyes.
If you've been hurt & abused by the religious systems of this earth, I highly encourage you to read "Love Well", as I believe it will give you hope for the Church & many of its pastors. It has certainly done that for me.
