What people are saying about
SelfLess
Megan is one of my favorite people. Shes a master storyteller, and if youve not had the chance to be in a room when shes speaking, fix that in a hurry. And bring a seatbelt. Heres whyshes real, shes full of joy, and she doesnt make everything about her. This book is a beautiful reminder that next to grace, one of Gods best ideas was making you.
Bob Goff, New York Times bestselling author of Love Does
Megan lives and writes from a place of sincerity and passion that is contagious. When she writes, we should read. When she speaks, we should listen. SelfLess is a must read.
Brady Boyd, pastor of New Life Church, Colorado Springs; author of Addicted to Busy and Speak Life
Megan lives one of the most inspiring lives of any person I know. Reading SelfLess, it was clear this is her personal manifesto, how she understands God and orients her daily life around Gods story. The words on these pages will draw you in and let you understand what your life can be in God.
Steve Carter, teaching pastor of Willow Creek Community Church, South Barrington, IL; author of This Invitational Life
In SelfLess, Megan Marshman gives a refreshing and honest perspective to the freedom the gospel offers. Her compelling storytelling and engaging illustrations allow the reader to participate in the journey of seeing life as something more than our small plot lines or trying to somehow earn a better part with good behavior or trying harder. Weaving together both vulnerability and strength on every page, Megan beckons those who are willing to become part of a story that is bigger than they could ever imagine Gods!
Michelle Anthony, executive pastor of families, New Life Church, Colorado Springs; author of Spiritual Parenting, Becoming a Spiritually Healthy Family, and 7 Family Ministry Essentials
Megans insight to our identity in Christ comes from a relatable, honest, and unique perspective. She has a way of demystifying complex concepts and turning them into empowering, life-giving, and biblically based principles. This book shows that choosing to become SelfLess is the path to discovering your true self, as God originally intended.
David Martin, speaker, pastor of Desperation Student Ministries, New Life Church, Colorado Springs
SelfLess is a refreshing look at life, purpose, and being filled up with God. Megan delivers a passionate and biblical look at how we can get out of the way so God can have His way in our lives.
Debbie Alsdorf, author of The Faith Dare, founder Design4LivingMinistries
Megan becomes honest and vulnerable in this book to point us away from ourselves and toward the One who is actually the main character of life: Jesus. Her perspectives are refreshing. Her vulnerability brings hope, reminding each of us that we all are in process. But her desire to make much of Jesus, and to introduce us to the life and purpose that He invites us to, is compelling whether youve been walking with Jesus for a while or are just starting to think about it. This book is a quick read but it is not simple. It is challenging, filled with truth while drowned in grace, challenging us toward true selflessness.
Brian Holland, teaching and campus pastor, Purpose Church, Pomona, CA
Megan had me at page 2. While she talks about the fallacy of tilting ones cup toward empty sources, the pages read like a mirror and stir the emptiness of ones soul. A bold and yet graceful challenge for all of us on how to be selfless.
Ron Hunter Jr., Ph.D., CEO of Randall House and D6 Ministries, author of The DNA of D6: Building Blocks of Generational Discipleship
Megan is almost as fun in print as she is when she speaks. Almost. But that is more than okay. An almost with Megan is not like an almost with anyone else. She is such an extraordinarily skilled communicatorskilled in ways that cannot be taughtthat her giftedness and voice come through even in print. SelfLess sets forth the gospel as winsomely and compellingly as I have ever heard it proclaimed. When I finished it, I wanted to give my heart to Jesus all over again. And I did, with tears. Really. Thanks, Megan.
Ben Patterson, author of several books; campus pastor, Westmont College
I came to this book nearly out of breath. I was tired and overwhelmed by all that life brings and all that my heartwith its episodes of guilt, shame, and feardemands. But within the pages of this book I found freedom and a renewed sense of how good the good news really is. Whether or not you believe it, buy into it, or live like it, God loves you, and that love changes everything.
Nick Benoit, creative director at Willow Creek Community Church, South Barrington, IL
SelfLess is a timeless reminder of who we are and get to be. God invites us into His story, to live out a life of freedom, to commune with Him through the grace given through Jesus Christ. Far too often, we rely upon the accolades of people we deem important or upon our social media status to declare our worth without truly being known. God has given us His Son, Jesus Christ, to fill us so that we can be contagious participants in His love story. Megan Fate Marshman writes from the heart using poignant examples from day-to-day life, ushering us back to Gods truth and the joy that abounds as a result of living selfless.
Chris Simning, national and international speaker
Megan Fate Marshman is the up-and-coming communicator of this generation, an author and speaker to follow. With a passion to challenge this current generation, she directly confronts our innate need to find love anywhere other than God Himself. If you are looking for a way to stop chasing the wrong things and feel the love the Creator wants for you, SelfLess is the book to read.
Evan Liewer, senior director of program ministries at Forest Home Camps
The power of words can change our trajectory. Through Megans winsome storytelling, God will use the letters on these pages to launch you into a new chapter of selfless living.
Brian Wurzell, worship pastor, Hillside Community Church, Rancho Cucamonga, CA
In SelfLess, Megan humbly and poignantly helps us reorient our livesour cupsin the right direction, showing us how to live in and out of the abundance and overflow of the gospel. Story-driven and personal, I recommend this book to anyone who wants deep faith and a purpose-filled life.
Jessie Minassian, blogger at LifeLoveandGod.com, author of Unashamed and Family: How to Love Yours (and Help Them Like You Back)
At a time in the world when too many people are looking to fill their cups in all the wrong ways, this little gem of a book has come to bring a fresh and much-needed perspective. Megans thoughts and reflections will be immediately transferable to the life of any reader. Its time for many of us to recapture a biblical perspective of our true value through the lens of our Creator. SelfLess is here to get us on our way!
Brent Eldridge, lead pastor, Arbor Road Church, Long Beach, CA; chaplain for the LA Galaxy
I have known Megan for over ten years, and in that time it has been a privilege to watch her grow in her knowledge and passion for the Lord. This idea of selfless living has been something God has been teaching her over the last few years, and I am very excited she has put these thoughts and ideas into a book. The way she simplifies this complicated topic of selfless living, as well as how she connects these ideas to todays culture, is truly is a gift. I am so proud of my friend.
