This Isn’t Another “Trust God More” Book

Are you facing:

Grief over what you thought life would look like

Developmental diagnoses and/or medically complex situations

Prayer that feels hollow, faith that feels fragile

Isolation no one talks about at church

You’ll recognize yourself in these pages. And you’ll find you’re not alone.

“This book is universally relatable to all of us who have lived through our own deep heartaches and losses.”

~ C.V., Advanced Copy Reviewer

Inside Drivelbane’s Playbook

In the tradition of C.S. Lewis’s Screwtape Letters, a senior demon mentors his protégé on how to subtly unravel one exhausted mother’s faith.

The weapons?

  • Self-sufficiency disguised as strength
  • Comparison that breeds despair
  • Prayer reduced to complaint
  • Bitterness that tastes like justice

Your advantage? You get to read their mail.

Each short letter exposes a tactic—and reveals the biblical truth that steadies you against it. No theology degree required. Just a weary heart willing to name what’s really happening and reclaim ground you thought was lost.

Christian author, Brianne Sutton, who writes to encourage weary parents

Brianne didn’t write this book from a mountaintop of victory or an ivory tower. She wrote it from the trenches.

As a parent navigating the unexpected, she knows what it’s like when faith feels fragile and hope seems like a luxury you can’t afford. These aren’t theories—they’re hard-won truths forged in the darkest moments.

Siege of the Soul is the companion voice Brianne needs in her own siege. The one that echoes the truths: “You are not alone. There’s more here than meets the eye. And you are deeply, fiercely loved.”
