Book Hero thinking about your next read

We all have things in our past we wish we could undo, redo, or hide altogether.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

We all have past experiences we wish we could redo or undo altogether. In Nothing Wasted, counsellor and teacher Kasey Van Norman's vulnerability invites you to discover God's personal and purposeful design for your future—not in spite of your story, but through it.

What if the pain and mistakes of your past are exactly what God wants to use to redeem your future?

A difficult childhood, public infidelity, and a fight with cancer—Kasey Van Norman has walked a rocky road of regret and loss. Shockingly, God would take her back to move her forward, uprooting her undealt-with wounds, secret shame, and intimacy-sabotaging patterns of behaviour. No longer running from her past, but instead, allowing herself to be defined by it, Kasey discovered a God more intentional and loving than she'd ever believed him to be.

In this book, she shares the truth that no part of our life story is wasted—but purposefully designed and used by God to shape who we are meant to be. With vulnerability, sound doctrine, and humour, Kasey unfolds the brokenness in her own life to:

  • Remind you that a holy, sovereign God lovingly works through your past mistakes
  • Help you look at your own past to embrace it as the necessary setup for your future
  • Point to the God who can weave together a beautiful story of redemption in your life

No experience or relationship has been a mistake. You are no mere byproduct of random events, and you do not need a do-over! Because with God, nothing is wasted.

Also available: video study and study guide.
