With unflinching honesty and profound vulnerability, , not so they can learn about the hardships she overcame, but to introduce them to Godā€™s power to transform broken, fearful, unfulfilled lives for his glory. Wenger writes, ā€œThis book is a call. A shout from the rooftops. An invitation. The words youā€™re about to read have been lovingly written for you. To shake you out of your settling. To shake you out of your commitment to not-enoughness. To shake you out of your need for certainty. To remind you of who you are. And to help you get clear on why youā€™re here.ā€  

Wenger explores themes such as the ā€œenoughnessā€ illusion, too ā€œmuchness,ā€ the role of the ego, self-protective patterns, essential identity, and more. She repeatedly fleshes out her theme: ā€œWe were all purposefully madeā€”on purpose, with purpose, and for purpose.ā€ But, she asserts, ā€œYour purpose is not about you. Itā€™s for you, but itā€™s not about you. Itā€™s for you because it brings fulfillment. Itā€™s for you because it gives you clarity. But itā€™s about something bigger. Itā€™s about moving forward as Godā€™s kingdom. Itā€™s about being love to our neighbors. Itā€™s about a bigger work that he is doing through us collectively. Itā€™s not about you.ā€  

Wenger combines memoir, life coaching, biblical insights, and advice pertaining to health and wellness as she invites readers to shape their lives around Godā€™s command given through the words of the apostle Paul in Romans 12:2: ā€œDo not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.ā€ (Beyond the Book Media)
