Not What I Signed Up For

Finding the Strength, Purpose, and Faith to Get Through a Season You Didn’t Expect

By: Nicole Unice

What do I do when I don’t know what to do?

Have you ever found yourself in an unexpected season? Struggling with fear, uncertainty, and an unknown future? And thinking to yourself (and saying to God): This is not what I signed up for.

From counselor and Bible teacher Nicole Unice comes a book for when you feel scared, helpless, and in over your head. In Not What I Signed Up For, Nicole takes us on a journey through the biblical story of Joseph―thirteen years of conflict, abandonment, and captivity―to help us see how God uses life’s hard times, twists, turns, and in-between spaces to grow something essential in our souls. With honest vulnerability, she’ll help you learn to:

• Move forward when every choice feels impossible.
• Persevere when you have no idea how your story will end.
• Recognize signposts of hope in times of doubt, anxiety, and disappointment
• Develop a sense of purpose and a resilient faith as you walk through seasons of uncertainty

As you witness Joseph’s eventual restoration and redemption unfold in an entirely different way than what he must have expected, you’ll find the strength, hope, and perspective to navigate a season you didn’t sign up for.

Not What I Signed Up For also makes a perfect gift for anyone in need of spiritual encouragement.

Christian Suffering and Hardship

Our church had a class on this book, and my sweetheart husband of 45 yrs. and I fell in love with this book and the workbook! He had been suffering from severe depression and anxiety for 5 yrs. and had been in 8 psychiatric hospitals as an inpatient. We tried every treatment we could think of to get him well, and kept praying and believing that the Lord would restore his brain. This book is a Godsend and a true blessing for anyone Suffering from long term illnesses or a long term time of trials and hardship! Sadly, my sweetheart passed away 6 months ago in his sleep in his last psychiatric hospital stay, so now he has his right mind in Heaven with Jesus, and I am still in love with this book! It is helping me with my grief for his loss. It is sad to say, but churches and Christian Leaders do not prepare us on how to handle these long term illnesses and hardships! There's not enough guidance in our churches for these types of circumstances! In fact, I'm leading a Bible Study now with this book and the workbook for our Grace Haven Ministries (women coming right out of prison and jail) desiring to turn their lives around, and they love it, too! The author also has videos on Right Now Media that you can use! May this book be as much of a blessing to you as it was for my sweetheart and continues to be for me and our Grace Haven girls!!!
