Kevin Lewis Explores the Messiness of Faith in His New Book: “Can You Trust Me This Much?”

Worldwide – August 10, 2024 (USANews.com) – In a world where people often struggle to find hope and purpose amid life’s challenges, Kevin Lewis offers a refreshing and candid perspective on faith with his new book, Can You Trust Me This Much? Finding Hope, Courage, and Purpose in the Gentle (and Sometimes Jarring) Nudges of The Spirit. This spiritual memoir is not just a recounting of Lewis’s personal experiences but a profound exploration of how faith, even when messy, can provide guidance and meaning.

Kevin Lewis, a former gymnastics gym owner in Buffalo, Minnesota, never imagined he would become an author. However, a life-changing event near his gym led him to share his journey. A mass shooting one mile from his business prompted a five-year-old student to ask, “Coach Kevin, did you hear about the man who took the gun and shot the people dead?” This poignant question haunted Lewis, driving him to reflect on his own life and the broader questions of faith and purpose.

Lewis’s book is a testament to the idea that faith does not make life’s challenges disappear but offers a way to navigate them. He shares his struggles, from almost committing suicide in high school to dealing with the aftermath of the mass shooting. Through these experiences, he discovered a deeper purpose, helping others find their way through similar hardships.

One of the most compelling stories in the book involves a young student who almost committed suicide due to bullying. Through Lewis’s coaching and mentorship, she found hope and went on to become a champion. Years later, her mother revealed that the gym and Lewis’s support were pivotal in saving her daughter’s life. This revelation gave Lewis a profound understanding of how his own painful experiences had equipped him to help others.Lewis’s journey is filled with seemingly coincidental events that he believes are guided by a higher purpose. From learning social media marketing for his gym to discovering the work of NY Times best-selling author Bob Goff, these moments led him to write his book. Goff, along with author Kimberly Stuart, became mentors, helping Lewis shape his experiences into a narrative that speaks to anyone who has ever questioned their faith.

The book’s title, Can You Trust Me This Much?, reflects a recurring question that Lewis felt during his prayers. It’s a challenge to trust in something greater, even when life’s events seem overwhelming. Lewis’s response to this challenge is an honest exploration of faith, devoid of preachiness and filled with relatable anecdotes.

Can You Trust Me This Much? is not just for those who already have faith but for anyone who has ever experienced doubt or wondered about the purpose of their pain. Lewis writes with the hope that his stories will extend courage to readers facing their own challenges. His message is clear: faith is messy, but it can also be a source of strength and guidance.

A portion of the proceeds from each book sale goes to The Least of These Ministries, which serves the homeless in Roanoke, Virginia. This philanthropic effort underscores Lewis’s commitment to using his experiences to make a positive impact on others.
