  • Description

    I Want to Escape explores the powerful allure of escape when life becomes overwhelming. Pastor Rush Witt examines the pressures, challenges, regrets, and disappointments that provoke the cry, "I've got to get outta here!" and shows how Christians can learn to run to Christ rather than away.

    Witt identifies classic signs of escapism and offers practical, hope-filled direction to experience Jesus's grace and mercy. Readers will learn to recognize denial, distraction, self-destruction, and thoughts of death and to take a better path of courageous dependence on Jesus, who remains closer than a brother even when we want to run.

    Part of the Ask the Christian Counselor series, this volume unpacks a single, profound question with guidance from an experienced counselor and gives readers tools to understand their struggle and how the gospel brings hope and healing.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is I Want to Escape — Reaching for Hope When Life Is Too Much about?

    A 144-page minibook by Pastor Rush Witt that examines why people long to escape when life is overwhelming and shows Christians how to run to Christ rather than away. The book identifies signs of escapism (denial, distraction, self-destruction, thoughts of death) and gives gospel-centered, practical direction for hope and healing.

  • Who should read this book?

    Christians feeling overwhelmed or tempted to withdraw; pastors, counselors, and small-group leaders seeking a concise, gospel-centered resource; and friends or family who want practical ways to recognize and respond to escapist behaviors.

  • What format and length is the book?

    Paperback, 144 pages. It is part of the Ask the Christian Counselor series and focuses on a single, practical question for short personal reading or group study.

  • How can this book be used in counseling or small-group settings?

    Use it as a short study or discussion starter: assign chapters for conversation, apply the book's identified signs of escapism to real situations, and use the practical steps to guide pastoral care and referrals. It provides counselor-informed, gospel-centered tools to support counseling and group discipleship.

  • Is this book appropriate for someone experiencing suicidal thoughts or an immediate crisis?

    The book addresses thoughts of death and offers spiritual encouragement, but it does not replace emergency or clinical care. If someone is in immediate danger or having suicidal thoughts, contact local emergency services or a crisis hotline right away (in the U.S. dial 988) and seek professional mental-health support; then supplement that care with the book's pastoral guidance.
