About The Book

Effervescent Faith

Life has a way of dropping moments into our world that threaten to pull us under. What if your faith was not meant to be a stagnant pool, but a living, bubbling force? This is the powerful question at the heart of this profound memoir.
Beverly Crawford invites you into her unflinching story, a journey through the deep valleys of childhood trauma, devastating betrayal, and the unimaginable grief of losing a son. She does not shy away from the pain…

Beverly Crawford is the living definition of a woman fortified by faith. Her story is not one of an easy life, but of a life overcome with profound strength and resilience. She has walked through fire, facing childhood trauma, a broken marriage, and the devastating loss of her son, yet she has emerged not with bitterness, but with a powerful, effervescent joy.
For over fifty years, Beverly's service to her faith has been the backbone of her life. From teaching Sunday school to leading women's ministries, her dedication has been unwavering…

In Their Own Words

I picked this up because my friend said it was good, but I wasn't ready for how real it felt. Beverly doesn't write like she's on a pedestal. She feels like a friend telling you her story over coffee, the good and the really, really hard parts. It made my own struggles feel seen and less lonely. That kind of honesty is rare.

From Sarah J.

The whole idea of "effervescent faith" totally changed my perspective. I always thought of faith as something you just hold onto. But the image of it actively bubbling up and lifting you? That stuck with me. It's not about avoiding the hard stuff; it's about what happens when you're already in it. It's a powerful and helpful way to look at things.

From Michael R.

As someone who also lost a child, this book was a lifeline. Beverly doesn't give cheap answers. She just sits with you in the pain and shows you how she found a way to breathe again. The part about joy and grief coexisting is so true. It didn't take my pain away, but it gave me a flicker of hope that I could survive it.

From Denise L.
