The former prime minister's work does not just detail his journey to the nation's top office and his time as PM, but also sets out how his religion shaped his decision-making.
Publisher Harper Collins describes Plans For Your Good: A Prime Minister's Testimony of God's Faithfulness, which went on sale in bookshops on Tuesday, as "less political memoir and more pastoral encouragement".
One revelation already aired is Mr Morrison's use of medication to treat anxiety between 2018 and 2022, a period that covers his time as prime minister.
His successor Anthony Albanese has given the ex-Liberal leader credit for the admission, which he described as brave.
On a tour promoting the book's release, the Pentecostal former PM described how he felt mocked for his religious beliefs and how "cancel culture" was affecting similarly-minded people.
"Alongside an account of high-level politics in a new media age where cancel culture, identity politics and deep secularisation is taking hold across so many western societies, creating a truly post-Christian west, Morrison testifies to the faithful love and blessings of God," Harper Collins said.
The book features a foreword by former US vice-president Mike Pence.
Mr Morrison resigned from politics in February, nearly two years after he lost the prime ministership at the 2022 federal election.
