Lusko's latest is useful for those who may be feeling overwhelmed or anxious. The book contains a lot of biblical truths, as well as some humor, which I hadn't expected. If you are looking for a quick fix, this book may not be for you. However, it does point the reader to the hope that can only be found in Jesus, and that never changes, no matter what chaos may be going on around you. Personal stories are included to make the book a bit more relatable. This book could be a comfort to those who feel like they're trying to navigate the storms of life on their own.

I received a complimentary copy of Blessed are the Spiraling and this review is my own.

Lusko is amazing again! I was gripped by his vulnerability and how even in the hard times in life, Jesus is there and it's so encouraging to read this book.

Levi Lusko has never been one to shy away from the hard stuff, and Blessed Are the Spiraling is a testament to that. This book is raw, unfiltered, and full of hard-won wisdom for anyone who’s ever felt overwhelmed by life’s chaos. Lusko writes with his signature blend of humor, depth, and biblical truth, offering both comfort and challenge for those navigating anxiety, uncertainty, or seasons of struggle.

What I love most about this book is its honesty. It doesn’t offer shallow platitudes or quick fixes but instead points to the hope found in Jesus—even when life feels completely out of control. If you’ve ever felt like you’re barely holding it together, this book will remind you that you’re not alone and that even in the spiraling, God is present, working, and leading you toward something greater. An essential read for anyone walking through tough seasons.

One of the things I have always appreciated about Levi Lusko's books is that is well-read and has a great way of pulling in interesting stories and facts in a powerful way. Blessed Are the Spiraling is not exception, and when that is coupled with Lusko's own personal, vulnerable, at times gut-wrenching stories, it can be a powerful one-two punch.

Lusko shares not just one story but several incidents where life felt as if it were careening—spiraling—toward chaos. And, yet, somehow, there is beauty and grace to be found within the spiral. The book is divided into two parts, which explain (1) how to find your bearings in the midst of the chaotic season and (2) how to move forward living in your God-given identity. At one point, Lusko writes, "I dare you to view your challenges as opportunities to trust God in new ways. To believe that your hard times are not there to destroy you but to deepen you. And if you do—and you keep on doing it for years—you will become a deep well for others." This, I believe, is the main thesis of Blessed Are the Spiraling. We often seek how to get out of a chaotic season; Lusko challenges us to seek what God wants us to learn out of the chaotic season.

Again, throughout, Lusko turns to biblical examples who persevered through the spiral and found blessing from God, but I felt Levi's own stories of struggling with sin, anxiety, the loss of a daughter, the loss of a father, and so much more, really brought a powerful personal touch to his points. If you find yourself disoriented by this season of life, questioning whether you need to just suck it up, quit, or for a way to press ahead, this is an excellent read for you.

I received an advanced readers' copy from NetGalley and Thomas Nelson Books in exchange for my honest review.
