My Big Dash - From Church Hurt to Church Healing: A Journey through Philippians is a transparent and hope-filled invitation to see life's "dash" - the short line between birth and death - through the lens of the gospel. In this first volume of the My Big Dash series, Jeff Stevens guides readers through the book of Philippians with honesty, pastoral warmth, and practical application.
Having personally experienced deep wounds of church hurt and the pain of being pushed out of ministry, Jeff doesn't write from theory but from the trenches of suffering and restoration. He shows how the Apostle Paul's letter overflows with joy, humility, perseverance, and gospel-centered identity, even in the midst of trial. Each chapter blends biblical exposition with real-life stories, counseling insights, and reflective practices designed to help readers not only understand Philippians but also live it.
This is not just a commentary - it is a companion for anyone who has been broken by people, discouraged by circumstances, or left questioning their place in the body of Christ. The message is clear: Christ is faithful, the gospel is sufficient, and healing is possible.
