Praise for Nothing is Wasted

New York Times Bestselling Author, President of Proverbs 31 Ministries

“Davey’s story of love and loss with his sweet wife Amanda is touching, devastating, and God-glorifying all at the same time. If you’re questioning the Lord in the midst of your own pain, Nothing is Wasted will help you find healing and trust that God is good even if our circumstances aren’t.”

Bestselling Author, Nationally Syndicated Radio Show Host

“We serve a God who never wastes anything—because everyone and everything is valuable in His eyes. Davey Blackburn is a walking, talking illustration of how God can bring light out of incredible darkness. You may not understand everything you’re going through right now, but the message behind Nothing Is Wasted will challenge you to keep putting one foot in front of the other.”

Songwriter and Lead Singer of NEEDTOBREATHE

“I honestly wasn't prepared for the emotional journey that this book took me on. God used every excruciating detail and impeccably timed revelation to remind me that his plan for our lives is far beyond our understanding. And although the events that happened in Davey's life were tragic, this book does so much more than recount a tragedy. Davey’s unflinching and vulnerable telling of his journey serves as a road map to restoration and to God's provision for all of us. I believe that for all the pain that was endured, there is infinite wisdom and blessing for any and all who come across this story. It will most certainly leave you encouraged and determined to trust Him through any valley you might find yourself in.”

Founder of A21 & Propel Women

“God is in the business of taking what the enemy intends for evil and using it for His purpose and for our destiny. I am grateful for stories like Davey's that remind us of that truth and fill us with hope no matter what unexpected challenges we face.”

Pastor of Life.Church, Bestselling Author

“Davey Blackburn’s story is one of the most heartbreaking, yet faith building, stories I’ve ever encountered. If you are hurting from a betrayal, grieving a loss, or struggling to overcome a deep wound, Davey’s book Nothing is Wasted is for you.”

“In Nothing is Wasted, Davey Blackburn tells an incredible and emotional journey of overcoming. The tragedy Davey faced was unthinkable. His strength in the face of heartbreak and his unyielding faith in God will inspire and give hope to so many.”

Pastor of Northpoint Church, Bestselling Author

“For my friend Davey Blackburn, “the valley of the shadow of death” is more than a line from a psalm. It’s a permanent part of his story. The murder of his wife, Amanda Blackburn, sent shockwaves through a local community and the community of faith. In Nothing is Wasted, Davey tells his story—their story. But at some level, it is or will be our story. In the end, it’s a story of hope and redemption.”

Pastor of Passion City Church, Founder of Passion Conferences, Bestselling Author

"Moving. Hope-filled. Faith-building. Scripture tells us that suffering is the refiner’s fire God purposes for the purification of our faith. Davey Blackburn is walking through that fire, and his made-like-gold faith is evident in the way he’s stewarding his story. If you’ve ever wondered what your Father’s plan is for your pain, Nothing Is Wasted will help you anchor in His promises and trust His purposes."
