In Even There, Ethlyn Rhymer invites readers into her intimate journey of faith, courage, and divine assurance as she faces one of life's greatest challenges-a breast cancer diagnosis. What began as a casual conversation with her daughter turned into a God-inspired calling to write her testimony. Through moments of fear, resilience, and grace, Ethlyn Rhymer reflects on her experiences from diagnosis to treatment, and the miracles-both big and small-that carried her through.
Set against the backdrop of her beloved British Virgin Islands and her second home in Atlanta, Ethlyn Rhymer's narrative is more than a story of survival-it's a testament to unshakable faith, the power of family, and the peace that comes from trusting God's plan. Without revealing every detail, she shares how divine intervention, prayer, and the steadfast love of her husband and children became her anchors through the storm.
With warmth, humor, and honesty, Even There speaks to anyone who has ever felt overwhelmed by life's trials. It reminds readers that healing can come through process as much as through miracle, and that God's presence is constant-guiding, protecting, and holding us "even there."
A perfect read for those seeking encouragement, Even There will resonate with people of faith, cancer survivors, caregivers, and anyone searching for light amid life's challenges.
