ARE YOU READY TO FIND IT?
We’re all searching for something. From the lifelong believers to the dedicated atheists to the wandering soul. We are all searching for something. Identity. Acceptance. Love. Peace. Joy. Belonging. We’re all searching for something. And what if the key to finding that something cannot be found until something else goes missing?

It will challenge and shape its readers to push back their preconceived notions and traditions and unpack the real meaning of Scripture and the message of the Gospel. This journey will walk alongside the criminal on a cross and it is guaranteed to unlock new insights, perspectives, and ways of life for anyone who has a desire to follow Jesus with their life.

In Something Is Missing my friend Mitch Frost challenges us to view our walk with God through the full scope of who God is and to confront our misconceptions about His character. Mitch's unique way of drawing you in with a simple proposition and leading you into something so much deeper makes every chapter so special. Don’t skip this.

In Something Is Missing I believe you will find a real journey to THE truth. In a generation that’s searching for “their truth,” there is something to be said about the real WAY, TRUTH, & LIFE. I believe Mitch and his thoughts will deepen that conversation in whomever the reader may be and enrich them unto pure action. Mitch’s books are deeply reflective of scripture, introspective on the soul, and encouraging to the heart. I think he tackles the question well of that something missing in the depths of a generation searching for more. I trust your perspective will be highly blessed through the process of reading this book. As you ask the question "what's missing" I pray you will find the divine solution of who Jesus is in every page.

In this book, Mitch shows us beautifully that something indeed is missing through a unique look at the criminal on the cross. Sometimes we think something missing is a bad thing, when in reality we can’t see the full picture of what God is doing. This book will help spur you on in your faith and challenge you to be bold for Jesus and know that He has given you exactly what you need!

If you’re in a cycle of depression, anxiety, heaviness of life or even a lack of purpose and worth, there is more for you. This book prompts such an important question “what is it that’s missing?” This generation is desperate for this “something” that always seems out of reach. The moment we stop reaching for it and take a hold of what God has set before us, life starts to make sense. This book takes you through how the Lord sees you and how He desires us to see Him.

I think there becomes a pivotal moment in every Christian's faith walk where they pause. They ponder. And they have some deep moments of realization on so many different topics. I think we all have a moment, or if we're being honest, multiple moments where we think, is this really it? Surely, I'm missing something. But what is missing? We feel like we're doing all the things, we're saying all the sayings, praying all the prayers, watching, and listening and diving into our faith walk just desperate for the answer. Doing all we can in our own strength and lack thereof to figure out the answer to this void we feel sometimes. We know we were created for more; I think Mitch challenges us to delve into the nature of our humanity and what we are so blinded to being our "natural way of things" and challenges us to take a big step back and examine the things we're so comfortable seeing as normal. Making us process experiences, thoughts, and actions to help us explore and eventually come to realize what is missing. This book kept me wanting to read more, kept me optimistic in searching my own experiences and feelings and coming to terms with what's missing.
