Hope When It’s Heavy

Trusting God Is Good When Your Season Is Not

Even when life feels broken beyond repair, this book reminds you that because of Jesus, hope is never out of reach.

When you're facing challenges and it feels like life is falling apart, the first thing to unravel is often our trust—trust in people, trust in our own resilience, and even trust in God. In Hope When It’s Heavy: Trusting God Is Good When Your Season Is Not, Amy Eaton comes alongside women who feel weary, heartbroken, or disoriented by loss, grief, or prolonged uncertainty. With vulnerable storytelling and grounded biblical wisdom, Amy gently helps readers find footing when everything feels unsteady and reminds them that even in the messiest seasons, God’s goodness is steady and constant.

Drawing from her own experience of walking through sorrow, doubt, and grief, Amy invites readers to be honest with God about their pain—and to discover how He meets us there with comfort, clarity, and unshakable hope. Hope When It’s Heavy isn’t a quick fix or tidy answer. It’s a trusted guide for women learning to believe that even when the story hurts, God is still trustworthy.

In Hope When It’s Heavy, you’ll learn how to:

Bring your full grief and questions to God without fear of rejection or spiritual shame
