Writer Sara Billups joins AMDG to discuss her new book, “Nervous Systems: Spiritual Practices to Calm Anxiety in Your Body, the Church and Politics.” She looks to St. Ignatius’ idea of holy indifference as a way of approaching anxiety-inducing moments.

@hellobillups — I loved this conversation!
THIS WEEK on #ejesuspodcast: Inspired by the rest area scene where Sarah sings ‘Don’t Toss Us Away’ and joins 316 on tour, @ChrisWhiteHQ talks with #OrphanedBelievers author Sara Billups and Lutheran pastor (and EJ super-fan) Matt Staniz: open.spotify.com/episode/7te…

“I’d tack on that the scandal of the Christian aesthetic is that there has become no Christian aesthetic. And without gutsy people writing and making music and art, there can’t be a new Christian counter-culture.”

If you are looking for hope amid a crumbling or combusting faith, this book by @hellobillups for you.
It’s a no-BS, honest-to-God treatment of Jesus in the face of all the crap, all the fake glitter, and all the bitter disappointments with those who confess his name.

ORPHANED BELIEVERS. If the church is going to find renewal, it must tend to the ones orphaned by the evangelicalism's failures of the past twenty years. This book by Sara Billups might be a good place to start. Check out this quick review by @ERBks

"In times of trial or loss or grief, God is actually quite near, in this beautiful way that we certainly couldn't see when we were trying to control everything and hold it all in." @hellobillups joined @wheredowegopod to discuss Orphaned Believers.

@hellobillups heart full of love for Jesus & an almost prophetic zeal shines through this work. It is a very much needed book--I'm confident readers will find the message they need to return and reclaim that most wonderful name, that of "Christian." #Orphanedbelievers
I’ve been reading my friend @hellobillups book Orphaned Believers & continue to be struck by her ability to communicate a complicated spiritual experience growing up within evangelicalism in the 90s alongside her love for Jesus & the church. Her tenderness is evident & a gift.
