Book Synopsis

Finding your yes is all about living a life of openness to the invitations of God in our lives. Christine Wagoner, a senior leader with InterVarsity Christian Fellowship, invites readers to be attentive to the movements of the Spirit and engage with opportunities God gives them. She shares about her own yes moments as well as those of others. And she offers practical tools for moving toward yes.

There is a significant journey that gets us from no to yes. It is a profound journey of heart, soul, and mind. A journey filled with risk, excitement, pain, and joy. A journey of growing our character and knowing God intimately. And--with questions both large and small--it's a journey we take again and again throughout our lives.

Would you like to live into your yes?

Review Quotes

"Finding Your Yes gives a hopeful and realistic invitation to a journey toward your best self. Christine's personal story and the stories of others striving to live in a posture of saying yes are infectious and packed with joy-filled and unexpected turns. This little book, I believe, can unleash a new and practical way forward for many who feel stuck but want more out of life. I highly recommend it!"

"'Yes is not a destination. It is a doorway to more adventures, ' writes Christine Wagoner in her inspiring book, Finding Your Yes. I've known Christine for many years, and as I read her book, I hear her voice--energetic and disarming. She drills down into our noes, what it might cost to say yes, and what it might cost if we don't! This book is a richly illustrated and truthful take on the circuitous path of following Jesus, of roads taken and not taken, and is seasoned with hope that 'as our yes grows, so do we.' You will love reading Finding Your Yes, and in the process, you just may find the courage to say your own, 'Yes!'"

--Beth A. Booram, cofounder and director of Fall Creek Abbey and author of Starting Something New

"How do you discover the call of God? If that is the nagging question of your life, then Finding Your Yes is your guidebook.

You'll enjoy the journey as you receive clarity for the road ahead!"

--Dave Rodriguez, CEO of Destinyworks

"In improvisational comedy, 'no' is the fastest way to kill a scene. You have to keep saying yes to each other to keep the laughs flowing. Our faith acts in the same way, and Finding Your Yes helpfully gives you practical ways to keep saying yes to God--to keep your faith growing and flourishing."

--James Choung, coauthor of Longing for Revival

"This insightful guide affirms how opening to new possibilities is essential to living out Christian principles."
