About this ebook

From Jude 3 Project founder and apologist comes a compassionate and insightful guide to healing, rebuilding trust, and renewing faith after our spiritual heroes fall to sin.

Our faith is built by the people around us—our parents, coaches, leaders, and pastors. We look up to them as they help us build our beliefs one stone at a time. But when those same heroes sin, it shakes the foundation of our faith, leaving us feeling disillusioned, hurt, or even betrayed. Apologist and Jude 3 Project founder Lisa Victoria Fields knows what the fall of a spiritual hero can do to our faith and hearts. She watched her own hero's reputation unravel after his death and spent years processing her disappointment and confusion before finding a way forward toward healing and a stronger faith.

In this thoughtful and relatable book, Lisa expertly walks readers through the complexities that follow the disillusionment of a fallen hero. With empathy and a solid biblical framework, she explores the thin line between admiration and worship, gives grief its proper place, gleans wisdom from a hero’s victories and failures, and refocuses on the only true hero—Jesus. She underscores the importance of community support and provides steps to rebuild trust.

With a grace and tenderness borne from personal experience, Lisa shines a light for those lost in the wake of broken trust. Her book serves as a beacon of hope, leading readers to a place of renewed faith and spiritual resilience.
