Reading Between the Lines
Podcast Description
Reading Between the Lines is more than a podcast—it's a conversation between friends. Hosted by author and editor Debra Butterfield, each episode offers real talk about life’s hardest moments, healing, and finding hope again.
Whether Deb’s reflecting on her own journey through trauma, faith, and resilience—or unpacking the deeper themes hidden in her fiction—she brings honesty, wisdom, and hard-won perspective to the mic. No fluff. Just real stories, grounded faith, and practical tools to help you move forward.
Deb is a survivor, a believer, and a storyteller. Her first book, Carried by Grace, tells the true story of walking through the unthinkable: her daughter's abuse, the breakdown of her marriage, and the fight to rebuild. Now, nearly a decade later, she’s sharing what she's learned—the pain, the process, the healing, and the grace that carried her through it all.
In this show, we “read between the lines” of everyday life. Expect honest conversations about things like:
Faith when it’s hard to believe
Forgiveness that feels impossible
Raising kids through chaos
Overcoming shame and reclaiming joy
How our stories—both real and fictional—can point to deeper truths
You’ll hear interviews, personal stories, and reflections that encourage you to grow your faith and live authentically. Whether you’re deep in your own struggle or just looking for meaningful conversation, this space is for you.
New episodes drop twice a month. So grab your coffee, settle in, and let’s talk about what really matters—the stuff behind the stories.

We often question whether God will answer our prayer or do what He says He’ll do.
In this episode I look at Ezekiel 12:25, “For I am the Lord! If I say it, it will happen. There will be no more delays” (NLT). God must do what He says He will, or He becomes a liar.
