Life will inevitably greet each of us with heartache and disappointment. But it's our response to these hardships that can either make or break us.
At just seventeen, Cheri Barrett's world shattered when she lost her beloved father. In the wake of heartbreak, a few simple, but profound words from Cheri's mother would shape the rest of her life: "You can become bitter or better. The choice is yours."
Now, in her book Bitter or Better: A Journey Through Heartache, Hope, and God's Faithfulness, Cheri invites you into her deeply personal journey through the pain of family divorce, the grief of miscarriage and loss, the battle against cancer, and the struggle of waiting on God's answers to prayers. With honesty and hope, she shows how choosing faith over bitterness-even in the darkest moments-can lead to healing, growth, and unshakable peace. Woven with Scripture, stories of God's undeniable presence, and powerful life lessons, Bitter or Better is a compelling reminder that God is always faithful, and He still reaches out to pull you up when you're sinking. Read along to choose faith over fear and better over bitter.
