Steven Curtis Chapman to release memoir, Mar. 7

Below is an excerpt from Between Heaven & The Real World:
A songwriter once wrote these words: “We’ll travel over mountains so high, we’ll go through valleys so low. Still through it all we’ll find that this is the greatest journey the human heart will ever see . . . the love of God will take us far beyond our wildest dreams.” Okay, I confess, that songwriter was me and the song was “The Great Adventure.” Even as I wrote those words, I had already experienced higher mountains and deeper valleys than I could’ve ever imagined as a boy riding rollercoasters. And I certainly had no idea how much higher and deeper the journey was going to take me. I’d love to take you on some of that journey with me, if you’d like to come.

While I’ve woven my life and my story into the songs I’ve written all these years, my desire has always been to tell the bigger story of God’s grace and faithfulness. I want to tell honest stories and sing songs about how God shows up in our “real world.” So that’s what my hope and prayer is for this book, as well. That as I share my journey over the mountains and through the valleys with you, you might find encouragement for your own journey and be reminded of what’s true as we travel this journey together . . . between heaven and the real world.
