Continue: Poems and Prayers of Hope

What do you say to God when words fail you? When the world feels messy? When life looks nothing like you imagined?

In Continue, poet and writer Tanner Olson invites you into an honest, beautifully imperfect conversation with God. Through heartfelt poems, intimate prayers, and quiet reflections, Olson captures the raw reality of faith—the wrestling, the wondering, and the waiting—while pointing you toward the unshakeable hope found in Jesus Christ.

Five Themes from Continue:

1.        God’s constant presence in all life circumstances.

2.        Prayer as an honest, imperfect conversation with God.

3.        Grace, forgiveness, and new beginnings.

4.        Hope in the midst of suffering.

5.        Seeing everyday life as a gift filled with God’s goodness.

This is not a book of polished, perfect prayers. This is permission to show up exactly as you are —messy, restless, and searching—to discover that God is already there, arms outstretched, ready to listen.

Whether you read the collection in one sitting or savor it for years, Continue will draw you closer to Scripture, deepen your prayer life, and remind you of the most powerful truth. God hears you. God loves you. God is with you.
