About this listen

Award-winning author and pastor of WestGate Church gives thoughtful, Biblical guidance for how to hear God and share His love in a culture of noise.

The effects of social media and the news are felt deeply in our day-to-day lives. The countless voices—the pundits, the influencers, the personalities—offering opinions and spewing vitriol nonstop have created a cacophony of chaos. It’s difficult to know what’s true or who to trust. It’s difficult to hear God and be heard.

In this book, pastor and author Jay Kim offers thoughtful, concrete guidance for how to listen amidst the noise, hear God, and then speak Good News so to be heard. Drawing on Scripture, social science, and cultural exegesis, Kim helps readers:

  • Listen through prayer, reading the Bible, and participating in the church
  • Better understand the environment and effects of social media, news media, and politics
  • Share the Good News in this environment, encouraging those in your day-to-day life

Practical, biblical, and eminently wise, Listen, Listen, Speak is an indispensable guidebook for Christians living in our culture today. It will equip you to not just speak into the chaos with the love of Jesus but, more importantly, to listen—to one another and to God.

Critic Reviews

"Jay Kim…has listened deeply to Jesus and Scripture, and has keenly observed culture and technology. Listen, Listen, Speak is wise guidance in a rudderless world."—John Ortberg, Author and Speaker
"Jay Kim does it again in Listen, Listen, Speak. He equips us to navigate communication and media pressures which are unrelenting and increasing…Jay brings a tone, clarity, and humor that is water to a thirsty soul. I highly recommend Listen, Listen, Speak."—Steve Cuss, Founder of Capable Life and Author of Managing Leadership Anxiety
"So much of our political dysfunction is the result not only of theological failure but spiritual malformation – and this book powerfully addresses both. Jay Kim has given the church the gift of theology that looks beyond the presenting problems of the moment and engages the deeper causes. Listen, Listen, Speak is a thoughtful guide to faithful living today."—Kaitlyn Schiess, Author of The Ballot and the Bible
"Somewhere amidst all the noise of opinions and divisions, we stopped listening. And we stopped speaking for fear that we too would simply add to the fray. But Jay Kim, as he so often does, offers us a better way…This is a book for our moment."—Glenn Packiam, Lead Pastor at Rock Harbor and Author of The Resilient Pastor
"Listen, Listen, Speak is a fresh word. This book is not the same old message about avoiding social media and the news, or escaping from the 'placeless places' that are discipling us. Rather, author and pastor Jay Kim beckons the reader to stay rooted in holy listening, in the actual places we are planted, and in God's very real presence--so that when we finally speak, we do so as the 'Good News' people God has declared us to be. Imagine quieting the noise of your world long enough to truly listen to it. This is the beautiful paradox Jay Kim invites the willing reader into."—Aubrey Sampson, Pastor and Author of The Louder Song and Known
"Listen, Listen, Speak will soothe your overactive, anxious amygdala with the promise of a God who sees, speaks, and hears. Kim graciously calls Christians to tame the tongue with transgressive, expansive love. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for sanity amidst so much noise."—Patrick Miller, Pastor, Podcaster, and Author of Truth Over Tribe
"We live in a speak first, listen later world. Jay’s book title alone is challenging but the content is transforming. If you’ve been looking for a way to hear from God amid all the chaos, this book is for you."—Ashley Wooldridge, Senior Pastor of Christ's Church of the Valley
