All A Lark

A book about Jesus’ comically freeing vision of His Father and the life of faith.

Jesus isn’t stressing, so why are we?

Somewhere along the way, faith got hijacked by anxious overachievers. Freedom became a finish line. Grace got a footnote. And God? He started looking more like a boss than a Father.

Meanwhile, Jesus strolls through the Gospels like a man who knows something we don’t—napping through storms, eating with the wrong people, and never once stressing about His “impact.”

“What does Jesus know that we don’t? Or better yet: What does He see that we keep missing?”

Russ Johnson, All A Lark

This isn’t a how-to book

With raw honesty and a mischievous grin, All A Lark cuts through the religious noise and invites you to see the Father Jesus saw—so you can finally stop chasing freedom and start living it.

You’ll laugh. You’ll squirm. You might even throw the book once or twice. But you’ll walk away seeing that faith was never supposed to be pressure—it’s supposed to be play.

Meet Russ Johnson

After 15 years pastoring churches, Russ realized he couldn’t keep preaching a version of faith that buried grace under effort. So he resigned, started Lark, and began helping people find the freedom faith was always meant to bring—through conversations, meals, and a whole lot of laughter.

Russ lives in Southwest Florida with his high-school sweetheart—Christa, their 8 year-old, a revolving door of grown kids in search of tacos, and two new grandsons who now run the house.

Freedom isn’t a finish line. It’s already yours. So grab the book, a drink, kick back, and let Jesus ruin your to-do list.
