Everything in Between

By Demi Cheryl

Through a tumultuous journey, Everything in Between explains why it’s OK not to feel good all the time and that, sometimes, life hurts. Everything in Between tells stories of loss, of letting go, and of learning how to love again. Most of all, Everything in Between tells stories of hope in the midst of darkness, joy in the pain, and how to hold on when it feels like life is falling away. Everything in Between is the story of a life searching for hope in the midst of hurt and meeting the Lord in all his glory instead. This is my story of discovering the truths of the Bible through the goodness of God.
