Publisher's Summary

We all have past experiences we wish we could redo or undo altogether. In Nothing Wasted, counselor and teacher Kasey Van Norman's vulnerability invites you to discover God's personal and purposeful design for your future - not in spite of your story, but through it.

What if the pain and mistakes of your past are exactly what God wants to use to redeem your future?

A difficult childhood, public infidelity, and a fight with cancer - Kasey Van Norman has walked a rocky road of regret and loss. Shockingly, God would take her back to move her forward, uprooting her undealt-with wounds, secret shame, and intimacy-sabotaging patterns of behavior. No longer running from her past, but instead, allowing herself to be defined by it, Kasey discovered a God more intentional and loving than she'd ever believed him to be. In this book, she shares the truth that no part of our life story is wasted - but purposefully designed and used by God to shape who we are meant to be.

With vulnerability, sound doctrine, and humor, Kasey unfolds the brokenness in her own life to: 

  • Remind you that a holy, sovereign God lovingly works through your past mistakes
  • Help you look at your own past to embrace it as the necessary setup for your future
  • Point to the God who can weave together a beautiful story of redemption in your life

No experience or relationship has been a mistake. You are no mere byproduct of random events, and you do not need a do-over! Because with God, nothing is wasted.

Also available: video study and study guide.

I desperately needed this book. I’ve been through some “stuff” and this opened my eyes to how God can use this for his purpose!

Concussion

Never would I have thought that 2 concussions within 2 weeks would have been the avenue God would use to graciously give me time to listen to Nothing Wasted. He knew I needed to listen to Kasey’s story. Her story answered questions I didn’t even know I had. Thank you, Kasey! God wastes nothing. ❤️

Real, Revelatory, Redemptive

Wow! I probably could write a book on how much this spoke to me, confirmed for me, inspired me toward so many things in so many ways. This may be THE most transparent and illustrative contemporary stories of God’s plans for redemption on this side of eternity I have ever heard. Thank you so much for allowing the Lord to use your story to help liberate others and glorify His goodness, faithfulness, and love.

Beautifully broken story of redemption and love

Struggling with raising teenagers who live for and love Jesus in a world that turns from Him, this book gave me His peace. Laden with scripture and application, her story is an inspiration and reminder to not only seek Christ, but read His Word even when we don't want to or struggle to. Thank you Kasey for sharing your life so beautifully. 🙏❤️🙌🥰
