UNEXPECTED

A faith-rooted story about trust, growth, and perseverance


by Tori Kruse

FROM SMALL-TOWN ROOTS TO MISS MISSOURI USA

This is not just a pageant story. And it is not simply a book about confidence. 

Unexpected is a story about becoming who God is shaping you to be, one season at a time. 

About walking forward with faith while trusting God’s timing and direction.

About the quiet, unseen work He does in preparation.

About strength built through consistency, obedience, and trust. 

It's about learning to hold ambition with open hands. 

Discovering that purpose is formed long before it is ever recognized. 

Tori Kruse understands that the most meaningful growth happens when faith leads the journey.

Tori Kruse has lived many lives

A girl from a small Iowa town raised with love, faith, discipline, and perseverance
A competitor shaped by consistency, commitment, and learning to trust the process
A woman who achieved a lifelong goal and realized that every "no" was quietly preparing her for a greater yes
A leader who learned to follow God’s direction with confidence and clarity
A mentor who has helped women deepen their faith, grow in their identity, and discover their purpose

Each season deepened her faith. Each step required her to trust what she couldn't yet see.

WHY THIS BOOK MATTERS

This book is for women who want to live with confidence that is rooted in faith.

If you have ever wondered:

How do I wait on God while still pursuing the vision He's placed on my heart?
How do I grow without feeling rushed or overwhelmed?
How do I lead with faith and clarity in seasons of uncertainty?
How do I release the pressure to perform while still honoring my ambition?
How do I stay true to myself through growth and change?

Unexpected is an invitation to release perfectionism, trust God's timing, and grow into who you're becoming, one season at a time.

THIS BOOK IS FOR YOU IF YOU ARE

Driven, yet learning you don't want to live under constant pressure
Navigating change while staying grounded in who you are becoming
Accomplished, but sensing God is inviting you into deeper growth
Holding big goals while learning to trust God's timing
Ready to grow with intention, clarity, and confidence

This book is for the woman with big, sometimes unexplainable ambition, the kind that doesn't always make sense, but is rooted in a deep knowing that she is called to make an impact and build something meaningful.

INSIDE UNEXPECTED YOU WILL DISCOVER

How faith, discipline, and consistency quietly shape your character
Why your identity in Christ matters more than titles or external success
The difference between striving for outcomes & aligning with God's direction
Lessons learned through preparation and perseverance
How surrendering control to God creates clarity and confidence
How confidence grows through trust and obedience

This book is not about forcing results.

It is about walking faithfully through every season.

WHAT MAKES  UNEXPECTED DIFFERENT

Unexpected doesn't just inspire - it challenges.

It invites you to take a deeper look at your faith, your plans, and the way you've been holding control.

It offers a new perspective - one that calls you to trust God more fully and surrender not just your life, but your ambitions and business to His direction.

This book is about letting go of your own timeline and learning to walk in the freedom that comes from trusting God's plan instead.

It stretches you to release your way, your striving, and your need to have everything figured out - and to step fully into what God is doing.

Unexpected challenges you to grow, while reminding you that surrender is not loss - it's where peace, clarity, and fruit are found.

AUTHOR NOTE

Every no brings me closer to God's yes. Faithful obedience has taught me that His timing is always right on time.
