Book Spotlight-The Very Good News, by Robin Smit

The Very Good news

The Gospel That Won’t Be Explained

We’re thrilled to announce the upcoming release of a book that carries the very heart of our mission at TWS Publishing.

Our founder of The Writer’s Society, Robin Smit,[also co-founder of GAN-Grace Awakening Network] is launching her newest work, The Very Good News: The Gospel of Jesus Christ, the week of July 21—and it’s unlike anything she’s written before.

This one didn’t come through careful outlines or theological exposition.
It came through Presence. Through listening. Through letting go of every system that once tried to contain the Gospel.

Robin writes:

“This book almost stayed hidden on my computer. Unfinished. Abandoned. For a year, I tried to write it the way I always have—teaching, explaining, breaking down Scripture verse by verse. But every time I tried, I kept hearing the Voice inside: ‘That’s not it. Don’t explain it. Breathe it. Exclaim it.’”

“Her words pulse with Presence… calling us into the scandalous, breathtaking reality of union.”Jason Clark, Rethinking God with Tacos

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Raven
Refreshing
I am completely undone by the words on these pages.
As someone who has been in a season where theology has stepped into the picture and intellect over heart posture has tripped me up more times then I would like………this is a fresh drink on a hot summer day. If stopping and smelling the roses was a book. Taking me back to the very moment I encountered Jesus for the first time. There is so much beauty that comes from just resting in the simplicity of the good news. This book will lead you to rest. To put down all your striving and receive what’s always been true.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ricky
A beautifully simple yet profound invitation
The Very Good News by Robin Smit is exactly what its title promises—very good news, told in a way that is both deeply accessible and theologically rich. From the first page, this book gently but powerfully reorients the reader away from fear-based religion and toward the love-soaked reality of who God has always been. Robin writes with clarity, kindness, and conviction. You won’t find manipulation, pressure, or guilt here. Instead, you’ll discover an invitation—one that echoes the heart of Jesus: come, as you are, and remember who you’ve always been in Him. This book is especially meaningful for those who have been wounded by performance-based Christianity or who are deconstructing fear-centered versions of the Gospel. But it’s not just for the disillusioned—it’s for anyone ready to hear the truth of their belovedness, identity, and inclusion in Christ. I’m thankful for this little book with a big message. It’s a refreshing, grace-filled reminder of the Gospel that’s better than we thought—and more personal than we dared to believe.

Don’t miss out on The Very Good News!
