"Melanie Springer Mock's new book, Worthy, truly matters. It matters, as Madeleine L'Engle might say, 'cosmically, ' as the author tells her own story of untangling her faith from empty or showy religion and affirms that we are all "inherently image-bearers of God" and worthy simply because we exist. I love Mock's sensibility (and good sense) and her call to authenticity and love."
Jennifer Grant, author of When Did Everybody Else Get So Old?"Using her own life as a flashlight, Melanie Springer Mock wonderfully illustrates ways to discover worth when 'not enough' is the message most often heard in Christian and secular cultures. If you are yearning to be simply and amazingly 'you' in Christ and in community, read this book. It certainly touched me."
MaryKate Morse, author and spiritual director"Reading Worthy is like sitting down for a cup of coffee with a best friend you didn't know you had. Melanie Springer Mock both affirms the worthiness of every human being as created in God's image, and gently leads her reader to consider larger questions of social justice in the context of individual worth. This book is a must-read for anyone who has ever felt like an outsider, watching the parade of 'haves' go by while perennially feeling like a 'have not.'"
Elrena Evans, editor at Evangelicals for Social Action"When we are truly, deeply loved, the way Jesus loves, our hearts and minds expand beyond all knowing. Worthy doesn't just describe that love; it takes you inside it through the power of story. Reading this beautiful, vulnerable book will make you feel worthy in your very bone --and will inspire you to love others the same way. What good news!"
Shirley Hershey Showalter, author of Blush"Melanie Springer Mock's Worthy uniquely weaves scholarly inquiry and good storytelling into a powerful witness."
