Publisher's Summary:
In Out of Sorts, Sarah Bessey, award-winning blogger and author of Jesus Feminist, helps us grapple with core Christian issues using a mixture of beautiful storytelling and biblical teaching. As she candidly shares her wrestlings with core issues - such as who Jesus is, what place the church has in our lives, how to disagree yet remain within a community, and how to love the Bible for what it is rather than what we want it to be - she teaches us how to walk courageously through our own tough questions. In the process of gently helping us sort things out, Bessey teaches us how to be as comfortable with uncertainty as we are with solid answers. And as we learn to hold questions in one hand and answers in the other, we discover new depths of faith that will remain secure even through the storms of life.

Members Reviews:
Sounded like a robot reading this!
Would you try another book from Sarah Bessey and/or Joell A. Jacob?
I am beyond disappointed in this experiencing. I could barely get past the foreword because of the automated sound of the reader. She sounds like those cartoons with the female robot voice. Or it's like being read to by Siri. I was SOOO looking forward to this book, but I will have to buy the book and read it myself, because listening to this was unbearable. I hate writing such a negative review, but seriously y'all, this was BEYOND bad.
What other book might you compare Out of Sorts to and why?
I don't know.
Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Joell A. Jacob?
Anyone. Literally, anyone would have to have been better.
Did Out of Sorts inspire you to do anything?
Write this review and wish I could get my money back...
Is Siri reading this book?!
The story itself is wonderful. Sarah Bessey is one of my favorite authors. But about 10 minutes into this book I had to turn it off and buy the printed copy on Amazon. The narrator sounds like a robot and the inflection and timing is way off. It was so distracting I had to stop listening. I'm so disappointed.
Narrator is God awful
What would have made Out of Sorts better?
This is one of those books that is a MILLION TIMES BETTER as a hard copy than audiobook. I purchased the kindle edition and added the audible narration for cheap price. Holy Moses is the narrator terrible. It sounds like Siri is performing the book. But this book is great and fantastic and has SO MANY amazing ideas and points.
Any additional comments?
Skip the audio and just read the hard copy.
So glad I stuck with it
Wonderful content read by a somewhat annoying narrator. Expressive and well done, but the narrator seems to be condescending at times.
However, the content was incredible. Lilting narrative and a cathartic tale made this worth the time to "read."
Profound insightful, vulnerable, real
As a church Born and raised in person withi an every evolving faith and experiences of restlessness I highly recommend
