Between Heaven and Here: Biblical Answers About the Spiritual Battle You’re Facing

You don't have to fear what you don't understand.

Questions about spiritual warfare, angels, demons, heaven, and the unseen world can feel intimidating. Maybe you've wondered why certain struggles seem to keep showing up, why fear can feel so loud, or whether there's more going on than what you can see.

And when answers feel hard to find, it's easy to feel uncertain, overwhelmed, or even afraid.

But God's Word doesn't leave us guessing.

That's the heartbeat behind Between Heaven and Here.

Through this study, you'll explore what Scripture really says about the unseen realities around us and discover how biblical Truth brings confidence, clarity, and peace in the middle of life's battles.

Because the battle is real. But so is the victory.

You don't have to live in fear of what you can't see. God has given you His Word so you can walk forward with confidence, knowing that Jesus reigns over every battle and every unanswered question.

As Asa's reign ended, God reminded His people that He strengthens the pure in heart; then Jehoshaphat became king.

As a parent and a teacher, I have learned quite a bit about behavior management. I know, for example, that if you take away the toy a child threw at his brother, he will simply find another toy to throw!

Here’s what our First 5 friends are saying …

  • "I wake up every morning, and this is the first thing I pick up. It has impacted me that I start my day with Jesus. I was starting it with anxiety and fear, and I had been struggling with trusting God. If I start with First 5 in the mornings, then my day is headed in the right direction."

    Marsha B.
  • "First 5 has helped me a lot since I have deleted social media. I was dealing with shame and anxiety from my past. I used to wake up and go on Facebook, but instead I now go on First 5. I’ve been looking for a consistent way to get in the Word and love First 5. I use First 5 to deeper understand my study and get different perspectives. First 5 is the positive way I need to start my day in troubling times."

    Emily B.
  • "God has worked in my life through First 5 by holding me accountable and relearning His Word and teaching. It makes me feel uplifted. It has surrounded me and made me hungry for more teaching. It just opened my eyes and has been the biggest blessing. I thank God for allowing this and bringing His Word to me when I needed it."

    Miranda H.
