Publisher Description
Are you tired of people knowing who you are but no one really knowing you?
As the star of the twentieth season of The Bachelor, Ben Higgins looked like he had it all together. Instead, Ben felt dissatisfied, fearful, and deeply alone. Like so many of us, he thought of himself as the kid who never got picked for the game, the person always on the outside of the joke, the friend who knew a lot of people but was never truly known. He wondered if he mattered at all.
In this expanded edition of Alone in Plain Sight, Ben shares with inspiring vulnerability how he found the deeper connection he longed for. He offers insight on
how to understand ourselves more deeply so that we are free to connect with others;how shared pain can bridge even the widest gaps between two very different people;how marriage and fatherhood have shaped his understanding of vulnerability and connection;how the God who longs for relationship with us is the answer to our need for connection; andin an all-new chapter, how radical generosity, service, and community building can lead to an even greater depth of relationship.
In a disconnected world, it is possible to have lasting purpose and peace. You are already known. You are already loved. You are already seen. Discover how to live out how much you matter as you embrace the true meaning of your one incredible life.

Loved it!!
Beautifully written and just what I needed to read right now. Struggling with my own feelings of “disconnect” and this book made me feel less alone - thank you Ben! Very inspiring stories (the one about the man being a “victor” and not a “victim” made me cry!) and powerful advice. Will come back to this book again and again ❤️.
If you feel alone in plain sight, read this book.
Higgins offers a vulnerable and honest journey to understanding how reconnecting with God connects us to humanity in all of its forms and relationships. I really enjoyed his openness and authenticity. A great book for someone just beginning a faith journey and wondering what this God thing is all about, or a pastor (like me) who occasionally needs to “borrow some faith” from a friend.
