Purpose Doesn't Pause: Finding Freedom from What's Holding You Back

by Hope Reagan Harris

Feeling confused, stuck, or simply lost about who you are and where you’re going? You still have everything you need to live purposefully.

Hope Reagan Harris’s book Purpose Doesn’t Pause helps you lean into your confusion, rather than avoid it, and create a roadmap that leads you out of uncertainty so you can enjoy a sense of purpose every day—even in the hardest seasons.

Purpose Doesn’t Pause speaks into ten different experiences that cause confusion, such as

Your life isn’t what you’d pictured Something good comes to an end You struggle with comparison You’re called out of your comfort zone Every chapter includes a story from a twentysomething woman who asked, “What if this season of confusion became a season of transformation?”

You could keep waiting for the life you want. Or you could show up with a sense of purpose no matter what. Purpose Doesn’t Pause offers faith-based ideas for getting unstuck and flourishing in who God created you to be.

Hope speaks with an anointing of wisdom and courage, both for women young- and older than young. Her timeless voice echoes the Voice of one crying out in the wilderness, “Behold the Lamb of God Who takes away the sins of the world”. She continually points the reader back to The Logos- the True Word, Jesus, whose words are our Bread and Living Water, Creating order out of chaos over the “waters of the deep” and creating new life and a New and True Human in those who heed His words today. Your purpose doesn’t pause because it’s His Purpose- and all His Words come back to Him wholly fulfilled.

Hope Reagan Harris takes us through what most of us in our lives struggle with at one time or another, doubt in our calling. She was able to give real life examples of trusting God in the waiting and practically finding our purpose no matter where it is or how uncomfortable it may be. I loved how she invited others into her book with their experiences and the Q & A's were good too. Overall, I think it challenges you to keep God's purpose for your life at the forefront and navigating those seasons of doubt with Him.

More geared towards 20somethings, which I haven’t been for awhile. Good book for the young adult women in your life.
