Book Release: Joy Yet Resides Here
INDIANAPOLIS, April 26, 2025 - VK Press’ next book release is Joy Yet Resides Here by Candace Boyd Simmons!
Joy Yet Resides Here is a collection of prayers, laments, and homage for folks who dance in the margins. It is a book by a shaky Christian who still believes and seeks solace in the arms of faith with her soul laid bare. Through love, grace and trembling faith, Candace Boyd Simmons uncovers peace amidst a storm of doubt.
“Death causes me to sit in a weird space at the junction of anger and gratitude.”
“There’s something to be said about rising and carrying love with, alongside, and within you.”
Joy Yet Resides Here is 120 pages and will be available in ebook and print on May 20, 2025 at Barnes and Noble, Bookshop, and other on-line booksellers.
