by Mark Tabb
Why You'll Love This
Finally, someone asked the faith questions you've been quietly embarrassed to admit you have.
- Great if you want: honest, irreverent wrestling with doubt inside Christian life

- The writing: Tabb writes like a friend who skips the churchy polish entirely
- Skip if: you want theological depth — this stays in the shallow end intentionally
About This Book
What happens when you've done everything right—read the devotionals, sung the worship songs, shown up every Sunday—and still feel like you're faking it? Mark Tabb asks the quiet, uncomfortable questions that devout Christians carry around but rarely say out loud: Is God kind of mean and we're all just afraid to admit it? Does my faith count if I've never cried during a sermon? Does medication make me a better believer than prayer did? It's a book for anyone who loves their faith and is also, honestly, a little exhausted by it.
Tabb writes with the kind of dry, self-deprecating humor that makes you feel like you're finally talking to someone who gets it—not a pastor performing certainty, but a believer who has genuinely wrestled with doubt and lived to laugh about it. The book is short and punchy, built around sharp questions rather than tidy answers, which means it respects your intelligence enough not to wrap everything up with a bow. It's the rare faith book that feels like a conversation rather than a lecture.
