Praise for The Thing
Beneath the Thing
“Steve is the guide that many of us have been searching for and are finally discovering. His words have spoken so much truth into my life over the past few years, and now, with the release of The Thing Beneath the Thing, Steve will send those words of healing into the hearts of thousands. I’m certain that healing and freedom will follow every single human who digests them.”
Carlos Whittaker
Speaker, author of Enter Wild, and host of “The Human Hope” podcast
“Some books have the potential to literally save your leadership (and your life.). This is one of them. Piercing, scary, genuinely laugh-out-loud funny, and completely disarming, The Thing Beneath the Thing will take you places you don’t want to go but absolutely need to go.”
Carey Nieuwhof
Bestselling author, podcaster, and speaker
“Steve wrote the book I wish I had to guide me years ago. If you want to live an authentic life, an actual Jesus-centered life, and a life that is truly healed and whole, this is for you. Filled with hope, humor, and a whole lot of grace, this is a book you’ll want to return to again and again and give to everyone you know who wants real freedom.”
Hosanna Wong
International speaker, spoken-word artist, and author of How (Not) to Save the World
“My brother Steve Carter is a gifted archaeologist of the soul. There’s so much that’s inside all of us: both beautify and brokenness, pain and hope. Some of it is buried deep. And it takes a trusted, skilled, and seasoned guide to lovingly help us discover not just what’s here, but what’s possible. Steve is that guide.”
Ashlee Eiland
Pastor, Mars Hill Bible Church and author of Human(Kind)

Risk Yourself to Align With
God’s Heartbeat for Humanity
Are you afraid of being seen as “that” type of Christian? The person people avoid because they think you’ll try to “sell” Jesus?
Learn to lean into your story, overcome fear, and risk your faith to initiate non-threatening conversations that point people to Christ.
Using Scripture and story, Steve shows that only through risking it all will we discover what God is truly like.
