About

Your openhearted path to reclaiming what you love about your faith--and lighting a match to the rest

When your faith as you know it has been commodified, nationalized, scandalized, and rebranded beyond recognition, is it even possible to recover?

If you feel iffy, conflicted, or downright devastated by spiritual disconnect, Erin Moon wants you to know that she's got questions too. With empathy, insight, and some healthy meme therapy, Erin maps out a faith topography that's comfortable with hard questions, dichotomies, and maybe not getting the answers we wanted.

Because, as it turns out, God is not afraid of your questions.

Consider this your open invitation to get gut-level honest about where it started, and heart-level hopeful about where it can go from here.


"Erin Hicks Moon narrates her personal journey through the landscape of American cultural Christianity, one with which an entire generation of Christians will relate. With the mind of a teacher, the heart of a friend, and a charming sense of humor, I've Got Questions is a generous and important contribution to the deconstruction conversation, offering a thoughtful and nuanced critique of her faith expression without dishonoring her faith."--Emily P. Freeman, New York Times bestselling author of How to Walk into a Room
"A refreshingly honest companion for those no longer satisfied with a laundry list of spiritual certainties. Settle in for a conversation with the best friend you've never met."--Pete Enns, host of The Bible for Normal People podcast and author of Curveball

"For many Christians, heartache, exhaustion, and rage have become debilitatingly commonplace. Is this whole faith thing even worth it anymore? Erin Moon doesn't offer an answer but contextualizes the beauty of asking the question. Full of empathy, wisdom, and a mountain of zingers, I've Got Questions is a hall pass for the spiritually weary."--Kendra Adachi, New York Times bestselling author of The Lazy Genius Way

Emily P. Freeman, New York Times bestselling author of How to Walk into a Room

"Erin Hicks Moon is a refreshingly honest companion for those no longer satisfied with a laundry list of spiritual certainties. Reflecting on a lifetime spent asking questions (and sometimes avoiding them), Moon invites readers to consider the 'little plots of land' on which we encounter God--to set fire to the weeds that choke them and allow something wild and new to emerge from their ashes. Settle in for a conversation with the best friend you've never met--a trustworthy guide on any faith journey (drink!)."

Pete Enns, host of The Bible for Normal People podcast and author of Curveball: When Your Faith Takes Turns You Never Saw Coming

"For many Christians, heartache, exhaustion, and rage have become debilitatingly commonplace. Is this whole faith thing even worth it anymore? Erin Moon doesn't offer an answer but contextualizes the beauty of asking the question. Full of empathy, wisdom, and a mountain of zingers, I've Got Questions is a hall pass for the spiritually weary."

Kendra Adachi, New York Times bestselling author of The Lazy Genius Way

"Not since Searching for Sunday by Rachel Held Evans have I come across a book that so vividly describes the grief, pain, and beauty of deconstructing and reconstructing faith. I couldn't make it through the introduction without both tearing up and audibly laughing. Erin Moon's I've Got Questions: The Spiritual Practice of Having It Out with God was a balm for my soul and I anticipate that it will be my most given away book of the year."

Zach W. Lambert, lead pastor of Restore and cofounder of the Post Evangelical Collective

"I've Got Questions is for anyone who has felt like maybe what they wonder is not allowed, like maybe they're the only one not settled on this or that point yet. But more than permission to ask, Erin is inviting us to practice this truth: any faith worth having, any God worth trusting, is one where everything is askable. Erin is skilled at naming the things that swirl in our hearts and minds, and by naming them, they sift and sort. Then we find ourselves feeling not just clearer, but less alone, like we have a companion in our questions. This book is a gift for all of us to help us carry questions well."
