What if the problem isn’t that you’re on the outside, but that you were never meant to live in the center?

In The Edge of the Inside, Jeremy Jernigan shares the raw, unvarnished story of walking away from a dream job at the center of megachurch life, not because he lost faith, but because he found a better one. After spending decades at the center of American evangelicalism as a pastor, leader, and insider, it all eventually unraveled. What felt like failure became an invitation to see faith differently.

This is a book for the ones who can’t unsee what they’ve seen. For those who feel the growing tension between the Jesus they love and the Christianity they were handed. It’s for the wanderers, the wonderers, and the quietly restless. With humor, honesty, and hard-won hope, this book is for anyone who feels disillusioned with the church but not done with Jesus.

The truth isn’t hiding at the center. It’s waiting on the edge.
