The Book of Jane
the book of Jane book

 

Jane Williams has it all—her dream job, the perfect apartment in Manhattan, and the man she's going to marry. She has her life figured out, and there isn't a happier girl in all of New York. But what if, her friend Lee asks, she didn't have it so good? Before she knows it, she seems to be the victim of a curse so awful that it seems almost, well, Biblical. She loses her home, her friends, her job, her boyfriend, her dog—but what about her faith? How will she react as her carefully constructed world crumbles at her feet? With everything she holds dear gone, will she discover what she really wants? Witty, poignant, and refreshingly real, The Book of Jane is a modern twist on a classic tale of loss and renewal and a hilarious look at the real meaning of success.

The Book of Jane is based on the Book of Job. We love adapting Bible stories that people can relate to. Even if you have never read the Bible, the odds are you know who Job is.

Plus, everyone has gone through a period in their life where it felt like God had forgotten them—especially us. But what we're slowing learning is that usually when we feel like God has forgotten us, we're just frustrated by how long he's taking to resolve things in our lives. It's hard to appreciate what you're learning on the journey. Thankfully, God is patient with us, even when we aren't with him.

The Book of Jane is about how it feels when your whole life is coming undone and the kind of strength it takes to wait on the Lord.
