[Cassie Hasekamp · Rating 5 out of 5]

I highly recommend this book for anyone who has been struggling to spend time with God. This book helped me knock down a lot of barriers that I didn’t realize I had. Uncomplicate It was incredibly helpful, relatable, and intriguing to read. I give it 5 stars!

Chapter 1 - Am I for Real?
- Wong opens this chapter with a story about her life as a young believer being thrown into a situation that made her feel ’not good enough’ to be around certain christians. She first learns about believers who ‘fake it’ and starts questioning her own motives. Wong addresses the "imposter syndrome" of faith. She explores the exhaustion of trying to look like a "good Christian" while feeling disconnected on the inside. This chapter sets the stage for dropping the act.

Quote: “This book is for anyone who has ever felt like they don’t fit hte mold they once thought they had to. Many expectations we put on ourselves do not come from God.”

Question for the reader: If you stopped trying to "look" holy, what would your honest conversation with God sound like right now?
_____________________________________________________________
Chapter 2- What if I dont fit in a box?
-This chapter examines the "spiritual boxes" or templates we inherit from others—traditions, expectations, and "shoulds" that don't actually fit our design.

Quote:” God did not invite you to be in a relationship with Him adn then ask you to abandon all the details of the personality He created you with.”

Question for the reader: Which spiritual habit do you do only because you feel you have to, rather than because it actually connects you to God?

_____________________________________________________________
Chapter 3 - What am I made of?
-Hosanna explains that God intentionally gave you your specific temperament, interests, and quirks. Understanding what you are "made of" is the key to finding your unique way to enjoy Him.

Quote:”Your life may not look exactly how you thought it would, but the desires God has given you were not made to stay dormant, they were made to be nurtured.”

Question for the reader: Are you an introvert who finds God in silence, or an extrovert who finds Him in a crowd? How does your nature change how you pray?

_____________________________________________________________
Chapter 4- Roadblocks and Shortcuts
-This chapter identifies the specific things that trip us up (Roadblocks) and the "quick fixes" (Shortcuts) we use to try to feel spiritual without doing the heart work. It’s about recognizing the distractions that keep us from an uncomplicated connection.

Quote: “God wants a relationship with the real you. God does not want a relationship with a pretend. Version of you. God does not want to heal what you pretend to go through. God does not want to answer prayers you think you’re supposed to pray. He is looking of rpeople who are honestly themselves before Him in worship, engaging in both spirit and in truth”

Question for the reader: What is your go-to "shortcut" when you feel distant from God (e.g., listening to a podcast instead of praying, or just "doing more" to feel better)?

_____________________________________________________________
Chapter 5: Busyness
-This chapter addresses the primary "uncomplicator." Wong argues that busyness is often a shield we use to avoid intimacy with God. She challenges the idea that being "full" is the same as being "fruitful.”

(Okay this quote is long, it’s a whole page, I dont care. THIS WHOLE CHAPTER is how my theology has been for a very long time! It REALLY hit home with me. The amount of people who have told me that I am a slave to busyness and that it takes away from me spending time with the Lord. I have been criticized and reprimanded for this for years, by several different people who dont know my heart well enough at all I guess. But THIS, THIS IS WHAT I AM DOING! If I take nothin else from this book, I take affirmation from this chapter alone! I’m so passionate about this!)

Quote: “How is being faithful in the land where God has put you-your carpool, cubicle, or kitchen-not obeying and spendingtime with God? How is watching your kids play soccer, helping your parents move, assisting your spouse with a project, nursing the baby at midnight, or being a responsible employee, leader, pastor, or coach not obeying and spending time with God? Whether you are overwhelmed at work (doing things God has called you to do or exhausted at home (loving those God has called you to love), it can be easy to feel too busy to spend time with God the way that we want to or think we're supposed to. Sure, it's also entirely possible that we have poor organizational skills or have said yes to too many things, and our feelings of overwhelm are a by-product. One hundred percent-that's possible. But many of us don't have poor scheduling skills; we have poor theology. We think the things God has given us to be faithful in are somehow at odds with being faithful to Him.”


Question for the reader: Think about your ‘busy’. Is it truly too much that is keeping you from the Lord? Or are you serving the Lord in ways that society tells you is ‘busy’?
_____________________________________________________________
Chapter 6- Distractions
-Wong dives into the "noise" that drowns out God’s voice. Unlike roadblocks (which stop us), distractions pull us off to the side, making our relationship with God feel cluttered and complicated.

Quote: “The pace around you does not have to determine the pace within you”

Question for the reader: What is the "loudest" distraction in your life right now (social media, worry, comparison)? How can you turn the volume down?
_____________________________________________________________
Chapter 7 Grief
-Wong addresses the reality that pain often complicates our faith. She gives readers permission to grieve without feeling like they are "failing" at being a Christian. Faith isn't about avoiding sorrow; it's about finding God within it.

Quote: “Getting real with God invites the power of God adn the peace of God to meet you where you really are.”

Question for the reader: Have you been trying to "pray away" a grief that God actually wants to walk through with you?
_____________________________________________________________
Chapter 8- Shame
-Wong explores how shame creates a "ghost" version of ourselves. She argues that shame tells us to hide from God, while grace invites us to be seen. Uncomplicating your faith requires dragging your shame into the light so it loses its power

Quote: “The enemy hopes we’ll fixate on all the ways we think we are falling short.”

Question for the reader: What is the one thing you are currently hiding from God because you feel too "ashamed" to bring it up?
_____________________________________________________________
Chapter 9- Silence
-Wong addresses the "holy awkwardness" of being still. She suggests that we often avoid silence because we are afraid of what we might hear, but it is actually the place where God does His most uncomplicated work. It’s where we stop talking at God and start being with Him.

Quote: “Arrange your life around being with Jesus and living with God’s voice"

Question for the reader: When was the last time you sat in complete silence for more than five minutes without a phone, a book, or a prayer list? What did you feel?
_____________________________________________________________
Chapter 10- Expectations
Wong addresses the "invisible weights"—the high expectations from family, church, and ourselves. She argues that we often mistake people's expectations for God's requirements. Uncomplicating your life requires distinguishing between the "assignments" God gave you and the "expectations" others placed on you.

Quote: “ Friend, you don’t have to crush it. You don’t have to be ahead of everyone. You dont have to feel flawless. you dont have to impress anyone. What Jesus is really calling you to do may not be easier, but it will be better. He is calling you to be whole."

Whose "well done" are you actually chasing? Is it God’s, or is it a specific person’s in your life?
_____________________________________________________________
Chapter 11-Personality
-Wong doubles down on the idea that your personality is your permanent permission slip. She explores how your specific temperament—whether you are a "thinker," "feeler," "rebel," or "nurturer"—dictates how you should naturally rest, pray, and serve. It’s an invitation to stop apologizing for your traits and start using them as a bridge to God.

Quote:” Look for beauty in how differently God has made all of His children, and expect that when you are living your life fully and in your pours, it will look wonderfully different from the other people who are living full and with purpose as well"

Question for the reader: Which part of your personality have you spent the most time trying to "fix" to be more "spiritual"? What if that trait is actually how God wants to talk to you?
_____________________________________________________________
Chapter 12- Praise-o-nality
-Wong combines "Praise" and "Personality." She argues that your worship doesn't have to look like a concert or a traditional worship. Your "Praise-o-nality" is the unique way you express gratitude and honor to God through your life—whether that’s through creating art, organizing a home, enjoying nature, or solving a problem. It’s about living as a "living sacrifice" in a way that feels like a relief, not a chore.

Quote: “ They are to show you that there are some ways you might worship God tha might be totally different from others I your life, and the best way for all of us to encounter God is to be fully ourselves before Him."

Question for the reader: Which of the 7 lists Praisonalities would you say you are or, if you were to give your "Praise-o-nality" a name (e.g., The Quiet Creator, The Joyful Connector, The Logical Truth-Seeker), what would it be?
_____________________________________________________________
Chapter 13- Personal Structure
-Wong emphasizes that an "uncomplicated" life still requires a skeleton to hold it up. However, instead of a one-size-fits-all religious routine, she helps you build a Personal Structure—a set of boundaries and rhythms that protect your peace and your "Praise-o-nality." It’s about building a life that supports your unique connection with God rather than a life that drains it.

Quote: “We must not raise a generation of Jesus followers who care more about their spiritual practices than personal closeness to Jesus Himself"

Question for the reader: What are the three non-negotiable boundaries you need to set this week to protect your "uncomplicated" rhythm?
_____________________________________________________________
Chapter 14- Practical Supports
-Wong focuses on the "village" and the "tools." She argues that you cannot stay uncomplicated alone. Practical supports include the people who hold you accountable, the physical environments you create, and the specific resources (apps, journals, communities) that feed your unique "Praise-o-nality." It’s about setting up your life so that the "uncomplicated" choice becomes the easiest choice.

Quote: “The notion that reading the Bible is important is not incorrect, just incomplete. The goal was never to just to read the Bible but to know, understand and engage with what it says — to know God adn get closer to him. We don’t want to be people who are good at knowing about God without truly knowing GOd Himself. We don’t want to be good at quoting scripture but bad at living it out.”

Question for the reader: Who are the two people in your life who actually "get" your unique way of enjoying God and will help you protect it?
_____________________________________________________________
Chapter 15 - Play
-Wong argues that "play" is not a luxury or a waste of time; it is a spiritual necessity. When we play, we drop our guard, stop performing, and exist in the moment—which is exactly where God is. This chapter gives the reader the "permission slip" to enjoy God through hobbies, laughter, and lightheartedness, proving that holiness isn't synonymous with being somber.

Quote: “Our expectations to have the most elite routines ever are exhausting, and they do not come from God."

Question for the reader: What did you love to do as a child just because it was fun? How can you incorporate a "spiritual version" of that play into your week?
_____________________________________________________________
Chapter 16 - Prune
-Wong teaches that pruning is not a punishment, but a requirement for growth. She explores how we must regularly evaluate our commitments, relationships, and habits—even the "healthy” ones, to ensure they aren't cluttering our path to God. Pruning is the proactive way we keep our lives from becoming complicated all over again.

Quote: “ If we want a real relationship with Gid, we have to stop thinking that it’s about producing as much as possible."

Question for the reader: What is something "good" in your life right now that is actually taking up the space intended for something "great”?
_____________________________________________________________
Chapter 17- How do I know if this is real for me?
-She suggests that the proof of a "real" connection with God isn't found in a feeling or a perfect streak of "quiet times," but in the presence of peace, the ability to be honest when you fail, and a genuine desire to enjoy Him even when no one is watching. It’s about the shift from knowing about God to knowing Him in your unique, messy, and everyday life.

Quote:”Love is not theoretical. It’s active. And Practical."

Question for the reader:Looking back at the start of this book, what is the biggest change in how you feel when you are alone with God?
_____________________________________________________________
Chapter 18- How do I make sure this lasts
-Wong focuses on the concept of "returning." She admits that you will get complicated again, you will pick up masks, and you will get busy. The secret to making it last isn't never failing; it's shortening the time between when you realize you've drifted and when you return to your unique way of enjoying God. It’s about building a "recovery rhythm" rather than a "perfection goal."

Quote: “ We don’t want to be the strongest people in the ring — the ones who tap out early because they didnt make time to rest."

Question for the reader: When you notice yourself becoming "complicated" again, what is the very first "uncomplicated" thing you can do to find your way back?
_____________________________________________________________
Chapter 19- The Best Time
-Wong addresses the human tendency to wait for the "perfect" circumstances to be authentic or to rest. She argues that we often tell ourselves, "I'll uncomplicate things once this project is done, or once the kids are older, or once I feel more 'spiritual.'" This chapter asserts that the best time—the only time—to enjoy God in your own unique way is right now, in the middle of the mess, the noise, and the current complications.

Quote: “ The way to live out your God-givien purpose, to flourish and enjoy the harvest, is to first have a one-on-one relationship with Jesus tha tis real, tended to and cared for. Themission will be accomplished if the mechanics are prepared."

Reader Question: What is the specific "circumstance" you’ve been waiting to change before you feel you can truly enjoy God? What would happen if you invited Him into it today instead?

_____________________________________________________________
Ending and conclusion. Wong has some great resources and questions of her own in the back of the book fyi!
The Permission Slip Every Overwhelmed Soul Needs

If you have ever felt like you’re "bad at being a Christian" because you don’t fit into a specific spiritual mold, this book was written for you. Hosanna Wong has created a 19-chapter roadmap that systematically dismantles the performance-based religion many of us have accidentally built, replacing it with something far more beautiful: authenticity.

What I Loved:

The "Spiritual DNA" Concept: Chapter 3 ("What Am I Made Of") and Chapter 11 ("Personality") were game-changers. Hosanna argues that our quirks and temperaments aren't distractions—they are the very languages God wants to use to connect with us.

Practicality Over Theory: This isn't just "fluff." By the time you hit Chapter 13 ("Personal Structure") and Chapter 14 ("Practical Supports"), you have actual tools to build a lifestyle that sustains your peace rather than draining it.

The Heavy Hitting Chapters: She doesn’t shy away from the hard stuff. The chapters on Grief (Ch 7) and Shame (Ch 8) are handled with incredible empathy. She reminds us that "uncomplicated" doesn't mean "painless"—it means being real in the middle of the pain.

The "Praise-o-nality" Framework: Chapter 12 is a standout. It redefines worship from something that happens in a building on Sundays to a lifestyle of using your unique gifts (art, logic, service, play) to honor the Creator.

The Vibe:

The writing is rhythmic, punchy, and deeply personal. Hosanna shares her own "mask-wearing" moments, which makes the advice feel earned rather than preachy. It reads quickly but stays with you long after you close the back cover.

Final Verdict:

This book is for the person tired of the "hustle" of faith. It’s for the introvert who feels guilty about silence, the extrovert who feels guilty about "too much" energy, and anyone who has been waiting for the "perfect time" to enjoy God.

As Chapter 19 says, the best time is right now. Stop trying to fit into the box someone else built. Read this, uncomplicate your heart, and give yourself permission to play again.

A MUST READ! Uncomplicate It is written for you... (yes, you!): followers of Jesus, those questioning their walk the Lord, those who may be curious about Christ for the first time, or those who may have drifted away from their path.

Hosanna's writing is grounded in God's Word, is Holy Spirit driven, and her realness and empathy make it such a blessing to read! I love her style of writing and find myself laughing out loud or feeling a hug through the words on the pages. She truly is a Light who wants people to know Jesus' perfect love. No matter where you are today, you can take something away from Uncomplicate It.

I have been in and out of church since I was a little girl, but now at 42 I have found myself 4 years into a real relationship with Jesus. Some days I feel Him so close, and some days, I feel like I am distracted, too busy, or not enough. Uncomplicate It has been a literal answered prayer and reminder to how God fearfully and wonderfully made me - all of me!! - even those parts that may seem like roadblocks to connecting with God or things that set me apart from others.

The enemy would like nothing more than to isolate us to push us farther from our Abba Father and our Savior Jesus Christ. But God! Uncomplicate It, along with prayer, has shown me that my personality differences, experiences...the highs and lows, the seasons of life (my soil) ...they are what give me my unique lens in which to view this world and shape my walk with Jesus (as He has always intended!) And the things that bring me joy, that is where I find God, I feel Him with me, and grow in my walk. All of it, with a little shift in my perspective and heart, can be shortcuts to a closer relationship with Jesus, and how I can innately share His Love, Grace, and Light with the world. Uncomplicate It is a tool to help you do that too!

Every time I picked up the book I found myself literally breathing easier, feeling hopeful and having joy in this season again (newly married, a Mama, a Celebrate Recovery leader, a full time paralegal...etc etc). Instead of feeling not enough, or too busy, the words on these pages have helped me realize that God has placed me in these roles for his will to be done, and my life is full (what a blessing!). Full of answered prayers and whispers that my heart once longed for. Praise and Glory to God, Jehovah Jireh.

Another favorite part of my journey through Uncomplicate It was the chapter on Grief. I lost my father to suicide several years ago. Hosanna, and those that she interviewed, showed me that I am not alone in how I have experienced and continue to process my grief, and more importantly, a gentle reminder that grief can be a catalyst to grow in my relationship with the Lord, prayer life, and with my family in Christ. Jehovah Nissi, my refuge and strength.

I will continue sharing my favorite parts of Uncomplicate It with my friends in our community, those in my church, and with my brothers and sisters in Christ. I look forward to reading it with a small group this year and feel like this book ignited a much needed heart shift about how God created me, and in knowing that, how to walk out a real relationship with Jesus.

Thank you Hosanna for your transparency and heart on the pages of Uncomplicate It. Thank you for your faithfulness as a follower of Christ and your dedication to testify, encourage, and lead others in this dark world to the Love and Light of Jesus. Well done!

If you made it this far, do yourself a huge favor and buy a copy of Uncomplicate It. And make the time to read it. Walking with our Lord was never meant to be complicated! Jesus' Love is pursuing you... He is full of grace and mercy, and wants to be with you exactly where you (and who you are!) today. ❤️ ✝️

[Jennifer Kuyten · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book has been a gentle invitation to slow down and enjoy God, and to release the pressure that faith must be complicated, performative, or look the same for everyone.

Through vineyards, soil, gaps, and trellises, I was reminded that no two pathways to God are alike—because no two people are alike. We are each created on purpose, with intention, and God delights in meeting us exactly where we are.

What stood out most to me were the so-called roadblocks: busyness, distractions, grief, shame, silence, and expectations. Instead of being barriers, they became opportunities—places where God longs to be invited in. Not after they’re resolved, but right in the middle of them.

I resonated deeply with the chapters on silence, rest, and personality—learning that God speaks and connects with each of us differently. For me, He comes as a still, quiet peace that steadies me even in the storm. That peace has become my discernment, my compass, my home.

This book gently dismantles the idea that we must be “crushing it” to be close to God. Instead, it invites us into wholeness—to be fully ourselves, in all our spaces, seen and loved without striving.

An uncomplicated relationship with God, for me, looks like living in the light. Not free from tribulations, but rooted in complete peace. Abiding. Resting. Allowing fruit to grow naturally from connection.

This book doesn’t offer formulas—it offers freedom. And in that freedom, I’ve been reminded that God is with the real me… and that is where peace lives.

[Marla Crisman · Rating 5 out of 5]

If faith and church got too complicated for you and you’re ready to enjoy God in the perfectly unique way He made you, this is your book! Or if you don’t even know if God is real or personal, this is your book! And if you’re looking for freedom and fresh ways to encounter Him even if you’ve known him a long time, this is your book!

“Uncomplicate It” released me from unrealistic expectations & led me to learn really FUN ways I was actually made to connect with God-all the things I sometimes felt guilty for because they didn’t look like everyone else’s expression of faith.
I can’t emphasize enough how FUN it was learning all the different ways different people connect with God, including myself and how to overcome the things that get in the way of knowing him more.

The entire book was incredibly practical for me right now at this moment in my life and in this specific season of my spiritual journey AND I can see how it would’ve been incredibly practical and freeing in every other season of my journey.

I love how Hosanna weaves her life story (as well as stories of ONE THOUSAND people she had conversations with) into the message in a way that helps identify the big questions we ALL wrestle with in life even though our experiences are individually unique. This one is going on my book shelf as a resource to consult in EVERY season of life. I’m ready for the Great Uncomplicating!

I was blessed to be part of the launch team for Hosanna Wong’s new book, Uncomplicate It, releasing early next week. I first heard Hosanna speak a few years ago, when she shared a powerful teaching on the vine and branches, and the need for a trellis. That message has stayed with me ever since, so seeing it expanded as a central theme in this book felt both grounding and deeply encouraging.

If I had to summarize my experience reading Uncomplicate It in one word, it would be freedom. Freedom to discover my own unique connection with God, to explore my relationship with Jesus more deeply, and to embrace a faith that doesn’t have to look like anyone else’s. Hosanna also gives us permission to join the “not crushing it” club. AMEN! As she writes, “The call to be complete is not a call to crush it. It is a call to be with Jesus and to receive wholeness, completeness, and nonfragmentedness from God.”

Another big ah ha moment for me came from this line: “But first I want to free you from the lie that you have two lives: Your God Life. Your real life. The only way to have a real relationship with God is to have one with Him in the middle of your real life.” That truth has stayed with me and genuinely shifted how I think about walking with God in my everyday life.

I highly recommend this book. I’m excited to read it again with my faith sisters and spend time discovering what brings my soul to life and how God has uniquely designed me to connect with Him.

[Christine · Rating 5 out of 5]

I really enjoyed the book!
I will say that I really related to Part 2 with the Roadblock section. From distractions, to emotions like grief or shame, to even a silence from God being stated as a challenge that thousands relate to, I would state that this book was very mind-provoking and brought me closer to the very presence of Jesus.
I love how Hosanna brings her perspective to a passage in Scripture from within John 4. Four excuses, aka roadblocks, are given from a woman at a well. Jesus invites her to look past these and come into faith with Him. After talking with Jesus, she soon evangelizes to a whole town!
I recommend others to buy this book due to the very real, individual, and imperfect human element it emphasizes. No one's walk with God is the same on the narrow road, but they are all unique and special. As I heard once, God loves us despite the way we are. His Word is the ultimate love letter to the Church.
Thank you for all the many readers (and author) that shared this experience, variety of perspectives, and stories of faith with me. I am very grateful!!! I know I am a bit biased 😊

[Nadine Mendoza · Rating 5 out of 5]

This wonderfully written book by Hosanna Wong is both challenging and engaging, while remaining deeply practical in its invitation for the reader to enjoy God in their own unique way—just as God intended.

My word of the year for 2026 is Abide, with John 15 as the main chapter I’m studying and engaging with this year. When I picked up this book, I had no idea I would get to journey alongside Hosanna as she explored this very word. Her writing feels intentional and is deeply rooted in Scripture, paired with thoughtful questions and practical challenges that invite the reader to engage in a personal and meaningful way.

It’s no coincidence that the first book I read this year is Uncomplicate It. This is only a small glimpse of how God has spoken to me through Hosanna’s words. I could write so much more about this book and how the Lord has used it in my life—but my words wouldn’t do it justice.

So I truly recommend picking it up for yourself, going on the journey, and maybe even joining the Not Crushing It club—trust me, you’ll have to read the book to join ;)

[Candice · Rating 5 out of 5]

Between information overload from what we've learned and the pressure of our own minds, it can seem easier to find ways to fill every second of the day with anything other than God. I absolutely love the way Hosanna helps us find our way to connect with our Father where we are and how we are wired. She is always a beautiful and relatable storyteller, and the rhythm she brings to her spoken word pieces comes out in this book. There is an ease and flow to its thought and approach that makes it such a great read.

I especially enjoyed the concept of Praise-o-nalities and how we can find unique ways to worship, but with a sweet dose of caution to also value the wirings of the gifts of others to be healthy through community.

Anyone who took the time to interview 1,000 people for their message deserves a read, and this is no exception!

I was blessed to be a part of the launch team for Hosanna Wong‘s new book Uncomplicate It which was released today. I don’t remember how I first heard of Hosanna Wong, but I fell in love with her book., You Are More Than You’ve Been Told a few years ago, I’ve always loved the analogy from the Bible of God being the vine , and we are the branches and we must stay connected to him to bear fruit Hosanna dives deep into the Analogy in this book with extensive research you will not want to miss! Another familiar yet so needed component of this book was talking about the rhythms of life. Jesus‘s rhythms these are the ways we stay connected to God and others “closeness is key to flourishing“ one of my favorite quotes from the book. I highly recommended this book and can’t wait to read it again with my paper copy arriving today

Just wow. You ever overcomplicate something that turns out being pretty simple? Yes we all have. This book changed my perspective on exactly how God wants to meet each of us and how He delights in getting to know us, uniquely how we are. Hosanna breaks things down so eloquently yet anyone can grasp the concepts. It’s for the seasoned saint, for the person questioning their faith, for someone who is just curious about God in general. It’s practical, there are stories interwoven from conversations she had with 1,000 different people and there’s lots of humor. Once I started the book it was hard to put down and it’s the type of book you highlight or write little things in the margins to come back to as you gain nuggets of wisdom. I can’t praise this book enough!

This book is life changing...I can not recommend it enough!!!
I can't even begin to thank you, Hosanna Wong, for allowing God to use to show me I was stuck in shame. I have always lived with chronic pain in back and neck for as long as I can remember with no relief from anything! Monday I had a two hour therapy session. It was intense. But I noticed after leaving the pain was completely gone!!! I have noticed my prayer life is much more vibrant that it has ever been.
Thank you for giving me permission to exchange the pain and shame for forgiveness and grace.
I can't wait to see you in San Antonio!!

[Rachel Ledden · Rating 5 out of 5]

I highly recommend this book!!! Reading it has been such a breath of fresh air. It has helped break off so much shame/lies about what I thought I should be doing as a Christian. Instead, Hosanna points us to Scripture and how Jesus lived to show us the practical ways we can uncomplicate our faith and live our day-to-day lives with Him.

There were so many times while reading this that I just felt like a pressure released and I could breathe again, especially during the roadblock chapters. I also really liked the example of the trellis.

This book is amazing! If you feel like faith is too complicated lately, I would definitely give this book a read!

[Katelyn Menard · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book was a breath of fresh air to my relationship with God! Giving me permission to just be myself!! Unapologetically me! Giving me permission to truly dwell in the season I’m in and stop trying to skip to the next best thing!
Favorite quote from the book : The goal is not to read the most scripture. The goal is to know the Author!”

I love Hosanna and her writing style. It’s REAL.. and Gritty and Raw! Zero fluff. She’s honest and it’s something I value in a Christian writer. She doesn’t skip talking about the hard stuff. If you are considering this book — the answer is YES, do it!!!

[Jarkeshia McGahee · Rating 5 out of 5]

I am still reading this book but it has been freeing. As a pastor's kid and comparing myself to others time with God, I have felt sometimes like I was not doing something right. This book is releasing all the expectations that we have when we spend time with God. Hosanna has laid out the blueprint to let go of the demands we have put on ourselves and truly embrace how our time with God does not have to be complicated.

Uncomplicate It by Hosanna Wong is a gentle, honest invitation to lay down the noise and pressure we so often place on faith. With warmth and clarity, she reminds us that God is not asking for perfection, just our hearts. This book feels like a deep exhale, pointing me back to grace, simplicity, and trusting God in everyday life. Encouraging, relatable, and grounding.

This book is incredible. I have never felt like I am “doing it right” when it comes to having a relationship with God. Every single page of this book takes off the pressure and shows you how easy it can be to have a real relationship with God as yourself. I will be sharing this book with everyone I possibly can!

I just finished Uncomplicate It by Hosanna — and WOW.

This book made me feel truly seen and reminded me that God wants a real relationship, not perfection or any other person's relationship. I laughed, I cried a healing cry (Section 2), and felt my joy coming back.

Hosanna breaks down a lot of complex ideas and road blocks into simple, practical ways to spend time with God. This book is going to help so many people uncomplicate the way they THINK they HAVE to spend time with God.

This is an amazing and awesome great book. It makes you think outside the box. It helps you grow and mature with your relationship with the Lord and how to engage with others thru this as well.
