Wisdom: God’s Plan for Getting Unconfused

What if you were told there was a forgotten pathway to life? Beyond wellness. Beyond wealth. Beyond life hacks. A path that doesn’t just instruct you how to live life, but reveals the meaning of it. Along this path you’ll find the cure for FOMO. The antidote to choice anxiety. The clarity you need to pierce through the paralysis that comes from having too many options. You won’t find this path by scrolling. Or swiping. The thing is, this path isn’t popular. It’s not cheap. It’s not easy. And it’s not a shortcut. But... it is the way life was designed. Ancient riverbanks established from the beginning of time; And the way of life flows through them. It is the way of Wisdom.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed by choice, have questions about living out your faith or you’re confused about how to adult well — this book is for you! Written for young adults, new christians and those exploring faith this book gives readers the tools to pursue wisdom and helps them find and live an authentic faith. The ‘In Real Life’ sections at the end of each chapter have discussion questions making it ideal for small group studies. 

Available in Kindle or Paperback on Amazon.

Bus Stops & Bicycles: A Handbook for Single Ladies

Refreshingly honest, and without the usual cliches, Bus Stops & Bicycles: A handbook for Single Ladies explores what it is to be an unmarried Christian woman, and suggests that perhaps there is more to the single life than just waiting around for a husband to come along. Addressing some of the common myths and lies to do with marriage, loneliness, sex (or lack thereof), daydreaming, dating and the future, this book is packed full of practical advice, how-tos, tips and strategies for doing life well. Written with warmth, humour and hope, and filled with delightful illustrations, this book will inspire you to stop putting your life on hold and stir you to pursue all that God has intended for your life.

Available in Kindle or Paperback on Amazon.

  • “This is a wonderful gem of a book. It is filled with wise advice, gentle rebukes, and biblical answers on how to be a single woman and a follower of Jesus. Essential Reading!”

    Mark Sayers — Author & Senior Leader Red Church

  • Taryn tackles this tricky topic with honesty and witty insights from her own journey that make it fun and easy to read. I have bought copies for friends and young single women who have found it such a helpful manual for the road.
