This We Believe by David Gushee is a candid memoir and reflection for those whose faith in Jesus has clashed with American evangelicalism. Drawing from his personal journey—from a born-again Southern Baptist to being ousted for supporting full LGBTQ inclusion—Gushee reveals the struggles, compromises, and costs of staying true to one’s convictions.

Through heartfelt storytelling, he offers hope to those disillusioned by evangelicalism, showing that it’s possible to hold fast to Christian faith even when the church lets us down.
