    I’m so excited about the book!! I was working at the conference when the video was filmed, so it’s cool to see it. Especially since I had to keep moving out of the way so Isaac could film… : )
    Will definitely be buying on release date or a little before. Brett and Alex, will you have any copies at PHC? Just wondering, since it would save me a lot of time and gas money… : )

    Great job, Isaac! I am looking forward to the new book!

  24. Nicholas K Says:

    This is an amazing project you guys have been working on over the summer. I don’t know how you guys keep up with your speaking tour, college work, and writing a book. I cannot wait for March!

  25. Sarah Peña Says:

    I’m with Alesia, what exactly is a book bomb?

    I’m definitely pre-ordering it! It will probably become a competition between me and my friends; who can read it first! ;-)

    Thank you Alex and Brett so much for this! I CANNOT wait!!! One of the questions a boy asked in the video is something very similar to what I have been wondering for a while. I probably should have asked one of you at the conference last summer. Forgetful memory! ;-) Anyway, I’m so excited and grateful to you guys for the book! I know it will be awesome!

    Soli Deo Gloria!

  26. Alex Jordan Harris Says:

    Alesia and Sarah: A book bomb is where everyone orders the book on Amazon on the same day — and we shoot the book as high up on the Bestseller list as possible. :)

    We did a book bomb for Do Hard Things and got up to #5 on Amazon… It was pretty incredible. :D

  27. Emily H Says:

    I’m SO excited!!! I wish I could read it right now! Do I really have to wait until March? :(
    ;) I’ll be counting down the days…

  30. Rose Says:

    Thank you for keeping us updated on the new books progress.

  31. Alex Says:

    Praise God! This sounds great! I hope it is a great success and that more people would see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, and the need to do hard things, especially small ones (which is where we all have trouble I think)!

    Soli Deo Gloria!

  32. Kaylee M. Says:

    Soooo excited!! The video is great Issac… Alex and Brett you’ve done it again with God’s amazing grace and help - thanks for all the hard work!

  37. Lexi Says:

    Hey Alex and Brett! this is soo cool!!! Can’t wait for the book to come out!

    I’ve started Clean Water for Christmas Project (part of Jumps 4 Joy) for teens to step up and show the world what teens can do for this holiday season. I know we can do it..but not many people stand up to make a difference..and I want that to change. Will you guys help?

    If 400 people just donated $20.00..we could build TWO WELLS for Christmas!!!

    God Bless!

  38. Emily Rose Says:

    The video looked amazing and I CANNOT wait to read the book! Just let me know when the “book bomb” starts and I will buy it then…
    Good luck you guys! I will be praying that this book impacts the lives of Rebelutionaries in a whole new way.
    In Christ,
    Emily

  46. Eleanor V. B. H. Says:

    Can’t Wait!

  47. Hannah V Says:

    Thanks guys for continuing this! I have been really challenged and when you take steps to move on it, God can really bless you! :D
    I cant wait for it to come out!!
    Have you gusys ever come to Australia? Would you be able to?

  48. Alexa Says:

    I was so blessed by “Do Hard Things”. I can’t wait to read the new book!!!

    Brett and Alex, thank you for all you do!

  49. Alesia Says:

    Okay, I get it. You will have to be sure to alert us all when you decide to do that =D

    Any chance I could have my sent to you and autographed?

  50. Michelle ;D Says:

    Isaac did a great job on the video!!

    props to him!!

    excited for the upcoming book release and the new conference “raising kids to do hard things”

    (you guys both are wearing striped shirts! film-making genius right there!!) the video was edited well.

  51. Melinda Says:

    That sounds really awesome, guys! Cannot wait! Do you think you could come to Australia? That could be pretty cool. I would just HAVE to go!
    Is there anyone that can help with a ministriy my friend and I are setting up trying to help win female teenagers to Christ, we have found we need a counseller!
    Blessings to all,
    Meggie

  52. Meg Says:

    Awesome! I was already looking foward immensly to the book, but this video (thank you Isaac!) made me even more excited than ever. If I’ve said it once, I’ve said it a thousand times; God has used The Rebelution in an amazing way in my life, and though I’ve been fighting many temptations the past few months (and in the present!), I am so excited to see some of my wildest dreams slowly becoming realities… by the grace of God alone. It is so hard to be patient, and just wait on his own timing (which is perfect, but still not easy for us sometimes, as I’m sure you’ve noticed). I’m having a hard time not using too many exclamation marks!!!!!!!!!
    Stay Strong, Rebelutionaries!
    ~Meg

  53. Alesha Says:

    Hey, that’s so absolutely amazing you guys! Do Hard Things is the most inspiring and life-changing book that I have ever read. It literally changed my life and the life of some of my friends. I cannot wait to read Start Here!

    For the book bomb, do we all order it on the day it comes out, March 16?

    That’s really great guys! God has used DHT and the Rebelution to accomplish absolutely amazing things for His glory! I cCan’t wait to see how God’s gonna use this book!

    In Christ,
    ~Alesha

  54. Sarah Peña Says:

    I know this is off topic, but is there a date for the wedding yet, Alex?

  55. Anna Lofgren Says:

    Can’t wait to read it! May God use this book even more mightily than the last one! :)

  68. Storm Says:

    Dear Alex, Bret, and all others,

    This new book looks quite interesting. The last book changed millions and I am sure that this next book will change that many more. I was affected by the last book. I live in a place that rarely ever gets touched by the outside world and I found your book by God’s guiding.

    Your brother in Christ,
    Storm

  71. Elizabeth Says:

    Looks really good, guys. Looking forward to it.

  72. Alesia Says:

    Just a quick question. Does anyone know how I can get the “Do Hard Things” Banner that I see on so many blogs? The one that transitions between different pictures and quotes?

    Thanks
    Alesia

  73. shay Says:

    This is so cool! This book comes out just as the Do Hard things Bible Study that I am leading at my church comes to an end! That is such a God thing. Thank you guys for taking the time and effort to write this new book.

  74. icefire Says:

    be blessed from germany
