God can handle your questions

You've been in church long enough to know the answers you're supposed to give. But there are questions you've never asked out loud — because you weren't sure the church could handle them.

This book is for those questions.

What if my faith isn't real? Does God actually care about my mental health? Can Christians really support that political party? What do I do with the church that hurt me? How do I love my LGBTQ+ friends without compromising what I believe? Does science kill faith — or just bad theology?

Too Real for Church is Pastor Josh Clark at his most unfiltered. A third-generation pastor who survived a brain aneurysm with a five percent survival rate, battled depression no one knew about, and has sat with people in the darkest rooms they've ever been in — he is not writing from a safe distance.

Chapter by chapter, this book answers:

• Why doubt doesn't mean you're losing your faith

• What the Bible actually says about mental health

• How to navigate deconstruction without demolition

• Why church hurt is real — and what to do with it

• How to hold sexuality and Scripture without flinching at either

• Whether the suffering in your life means God isn't paying attention

No sanitized answers. No pressure to land on a tidy conclusion. Just honest truth for people who are tired of being told their questions aren't welcome.

Every chapter includes a Small Group Guide — because the best conversations about doubt happen in community, not isolation.
