Between Heaven and the Real World

History & Biography

“It’s been my privilege over the last eighteen years to call Steven Curtis Chapman a friend. But you don’t have to know him personally to know his heart or know his story. His music and lyrics have spoken to millions. He’s the Michael Jordan of Christian music. When you read Between Heaven and the Real World you will come to know a man who has walked the walk with an incredible grace and a rock-solid faith. If you like his songs, wait till you read this book!”

Grown-up Faith

Christian Living

“For about the last thirty years I’ve been a national television sportscaster, and on more than one occasion I’ve asked myself, “How did I get here?” Not on this planet, but in front of a thousand realtors at a prayer breakfast talking about my faith in Jesus Christ, or at midfield of the Mercedes-Benz Stadium delivering the invocation before an NCAA football game. I guess the question kept coming to mind because if you had known me in my college days and into the early years of my professional career, and were voting on the least likely man to give the keynote at a prayer breakfast, I would have won in a landslide. I was as far away from God as you can possibly imagine. You know what the game changer was? It was the teaching you’ll find in this book. Grown-up Faith is written by my pastor, Kevin Myers. In the fall and winter of 1997, Kevin would visit with me and my wife Cheryl, who was, I might add, equally distant from God at the time. The meetings took place in our home. There, across the kitchen table or sitting in the den, Kevin walked us through the Bible. For so long I had considered that dust-covered, unused wedding gift, which sat in the corner of the attic, to be antiquated, out of touch, irrelevant in this modern time. But in those weeks and months of questioning and wrestling, the Bible became something new, something fresh. Kevin allowed me to see it in an entirely new light, and it became my road map, a source of comfort and strength. I remember Kevin describing it this way: the Bible isn’t just a history book; it’s a love letter from God to his people. Whether you’ve been around church your entire life or spent a good bit of time wandering in the desert like I did, you will find this book fascinating and encouraging, and its message timeless. It may take you places you would have never seen yourself going. I’m not talking about speaking engagements and invocations; I’m talking about becoming the spouse, the parent, the leader that you were created to be. That’s what happens when you put your mind, your heart, and your soul into having a grown-up faith. As you read, be prepared to have your eyes opened to a magnificent teaching. (I’d have a box of highlighters handy too.)”
