How to Human: Three Ways to Share Life Beyond What Distracts, Divides, and Disconnects Us by Carlos Whittaker is a book that offers a fresh vision for becoming the best versions of ourselves. Whittaker writes with humor, passion, and wisdom, and he invites the reader to join him on a journey of discovery and growth. The book is a much-needed reminder about what it means to be truly human in a world where people feel increasingly disconnected from each other and from God.

Whittaker shares his insights and experiences on living authentically and intentionally in a world full of distractions, divisions, and disconnections. He leads us on a three-part journey to “be,” “see,” and “free” that we can pursue in order to all live together as the best versions of ourselves. Whittaker uses stories from his own life and from people he has met to illustrate how these practices can transform our relationships, our communities, and ourselves. He doesn't avoid hard topics, such as racism, mental health, and social media addiction, but he also shows the beauty and joy of living in connection with God and others. He challenges the reader to rethink their assumptions, habits, and priorities, and to embrace a more human way of living.

He also offers practical tips and challenges for readers to apply the lessons to their own lives. The book offers practical guidance on how to help others, how to hope fiercely, and how to experience the thrill of being fully human.
