How to Human

Three Ways to Share Life Beyond What Distracts, Divides, and Disconnects Us

De: Carlos Whittaker, Sharon McMahon - foreword

Narrado por: Carlos Whittaker, Sharon McMahon

A much-needed reminder about what it means to be truly human in a world where people feel increasingly disconnected from each other and from God, by the popular author of Enter Wild.

“I hope you will enjoy this book. But more than that, I hope you will enjoy getting to know my friend. He is exactly who we need, today and every day, as we all learn together how to human.”—from the foreword by Sharon McMahon, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Small and the Mighty

These are crazy times, people. We are more agitated than ever. We’re fighting. Wrestling with big issues. Less connected than ever to one another and to God. It’s a perfect storm: debilitating anxiety, crashing relationships, and forgetting what it feels like to, well, be human.

In How to Human, author, speaker, and social-media personality Carlos Whittaker offers a fresh vision for becoming the best versions of ourselves. We can refuse to let disagreements define us. We can say no to becoming upset, rage-filled humans and say yes to fuller, happier lives. It begins as we make the shift from “me” to “we” to “everybody” in a three-part journey to be human, see fellow humans, and free those around us.

You’ll think, laugh, and be inspired by this practical guide, which reveals how to help others, how to hope fiercely, and how to experience the thrill of being fully human. Carlos describes a radical path of love—one that requires us to become builders rather than demolitionists. One that gets personal. One that moves toward others in faith rather than away in fear. One that, when times get crazy, is willing to get crazier (in a good way). One that understands the big joy of how to human.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Did politicians make us all forget how to human? Should we point the finger at social media? Is the economy to blame? I’m not sure. But I am certain that Carlos has created an antidote to what ails us. Clear, hopeful, and full of truth, he has once again charted a path to a better world.” —Jon Acuff, New York Times bestselling author of Soundtracks: The Surprising Solution to Overthinking

“Wherever Carlos appears, whether on social media, in his books, or in person as a friend, he shows us how to be a good human. Now we have his stories and God-given heart for humanity in How to Human, and I couldn’t be more excited. Carlos continually reminds me that while there’s so much suffering in this life, there’s so much goodness too. He helps us see the people around us, remembering that everyday moments are something sacred. Carlos lives like Jesus and reflects our Savior as He deals hope to a world that desperately needs it. This book is for anyone who wants that too—it’s a must-read!” —Lysa TerKeurst, #1 New York Times bestselling author and president of Proverbs 31 Ministries

“Carlos lives it first, writes it second. This is one of his superpowers. He faces life’s challenges head on and then invites us to do the same. How To Human is inspiring, challenging, inviting, and hopeful. This is the book we need right now.” —Annie F. Downs, New York Times bestselling author of That Sounds Fun

Love, love, love this book!

As a Bible believing, Jesus following Christian, I love the way this book teaches. As a Christian who often cringes at the way other "Christians" engage with the people with whom they disagree, I love the way that Carlos uses faith as the basis for his teaching in a most loving and welcoming way. Bravo.
