Jesus & Me - by Kirk Sheppard (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

What happens when everything you thought you knew about God, the Bible, and yourself no longer feels true?

For Kirk Sheppard, the answers didn't come easily. Raised in a conservative Christian community, Kirk spent years living by a script of rigid doctrines and certainties. But as he began to confront his own identity and the inconsistencies in his faith, the walls of certainty began to fall.

In Jesus & Me, Kirk shares his journey of unraveling and rebuilding-from challenging dogmas to embracing his authentic self as a gay man. Through moments of humor, heartbreak, and profound revelation, Kirk's story offers a raw and relatable account of what it means to find grace in the mess of faith and identity.

This memoir goes beyond personal storytelling, inviting readers to reflect on their own journeys of faith and authenticity. Kirk poses questions that resonate with anyone navigating the tension between belief and doubt: Where do you feel out of alignment with your faith or identity? How do you find peace when answers seem elusive?

With empathy and insight, Jesus & Me serves as a guide for those seeking to reconcile who they are with what they believe. Whether you are questioning rigid doctrines, redefining your relationship with faith, or learning to embrace the beauty of life's gray areas, Kirk's story will inspire you to live with courage, curiosity, and grace.
