Shows how our sense that there’s something more to life points to Jesus.
Most of us have a sense that there may be more out there than only what we can see or touch—not necessarily a God but something. You could call this intuition "somethingism." Some who believe this would also say they are “spiritual but not religious.”
This book offers those with this sense of belief in “something” the opportunity to begin to explore faith. Imaginative and thoughtful chapters consider the possibility that the sense of something out there correlates to a someone who not only exists but can be encountered and known in the person of Jesus.
A fresh approach to evangelism that particularly resonates with younger generations, this book is great to read individually, with a friend, or over four sessions in a group. There are questions to fuel reflection and discussion.

No doubt all of us at times have an inkling that beyond the material and mundane features of life, perhaps even infused within them, lies something else. For those who are pilgrims on the search for meaning, or who are stumbling after God, Somethingism offers an earthy apologetic for taking a second look at the Christian story. Creatively written, and insightfully journeying through the realms of reason, intuition, and desire, Somethingism is a must-read for those trying to make sense of life’s deepest questions.
If you or someone you know needs wise words to help reflect on life, purpose, meaning and God, look no further—this book is for you. Luke Cawley has carefully woven stories, examples, and questions into a tapestry that will spark fresh thinking on life’s biggest questions. Whether you savour it in small bites on your daily commute or dive into it all at once in your favourite chair, I’m certain you’ll find it an enriching and thought-provoking read.
Curious and refreshingly personal, Luke takes us on a journey in this book from our rumbling sense that there might be something more towards the captivating possibility of a ‘Someone’ interested in knowing us.
Luke Cawley fills a gap in this brilliant book. There are plenty of good books out there for people who are close to faith. In this book, Luke starts further back, aiming at a person who might just be starting to wonder if there is something more, someone more, some sort of divine being. He interweaves his own very honest story into his thinking and takes the reader on a journey, not merely to being more certain that there is a God, but that this God has revealed himself in Jesus, and that we can actually have a real dynamic relationship with this God. What's more, the book is so well written in a very contemporary way. I already have a few people in mind that I'd like to give this book to.
