Holy Guacamole

Have you ever felt on the edge, alone, down and out, or maybe wondered what in the world God can do with someone like you?

Sometimes you wake up feeling less than great about your life. Or your relationships. Or your job. Or your whatever.

Sometimes you even feel pushed to the side, put on the shelf, overlooked, and not particularly important to, well, anything.

Sometimes, you feel even less important. . .than a side of rice and beans. (You know, kind of like that stuff served on the side that no one really asked for?)

What if you found out you were something more like tableside guacamole—that fancy kind they wheel up to the table and make right on the spot?

Holy Guacamole puts a fun spin on the real complexities of marriage, motherhood, and ministry.

– Terry and Ashley Williams, Owners of The League Gym & Serial Entrepreneurs

Carrie gives a fully transparent, abundantly humorous, and extremely relatable account of her journey in life and leadership. I found myself going back and forth between laughing along and nodding my head with many of her experiences and revelations. If you’ve ever felt like an afterthought in God’s greater plan, or like your life is too mundane to matter, this book will bless you with a better truth.

– Seth Trimmer, Lead Pastor Grace City Church

Through absurd yet relatable metaphors, this book is filled with humor as fresh as a bowl of table-side guacamole. You won't even realize how many invaluable life lessons you've learned after you've spent the majority of this book rolling on the floor laughing. All jokes aside - if you admire an author with unparalleled humility and obedience to God, you need to read this.

– Adrian Crawford, Founder of Engage Church and The New Rules Collective

This book is vulnerable, authentic, powerful, and hilarious. Each chapter is full of relatable Bible exposition, personal experience, and references for just about everything. Carrie puts them together in just the right portions, keeping her reader hooked as she captures life in all its beautiful messiness. Read it and draw encouragement from the fact that you too are Holy Guacamole.

– Joseph Bonafacio, Lead Pastor of Victory Katipunan, Director of Every Nation Campus- Philippines

Carrie Stephens uses humor and grace to help readers see themselves how Jesus sees them—-messy, human, and oh-so-valuable. If you’re looking for a whole lot of encouragement—-and a whole lot of laughter—-grab this book, a notebook and a pen and soak up the grace.

– Erin MacPherson, author of 11 books including “Put the Disciple into Discipline”

It has been a privilege to work with Carrie (and Morgan, her husband) in church planting, campus ministry, and world mission for over two decades. During this time I have watched Carrie lead in the same way she writes — with faith, hope, love, and a unique sense of humor. I trust that this book will deepen your walk with Christ and challenge you to see your intrinsic value to God and His church. I am thankful for her voice.

– Steve Murrell, President of Every Nation Churches & Ministries

I planned to skim this book enough for an endorsement, but COULD NOT PUT IT DOWN! I cried, felt less alone, then challenged and excited about tapping into more joy amidst the mundane. My friend Carrie “gets it” and through her anointed gift of putting words to Truth, we get a big dose of refreshment and courage to live more alive every day.

– Lynette Lewis, TEDx speaker, pastor’s wife, author of Climbing the Ladder in Stilettos
