Cheryl Lynn’s Washing the Inside of the Cup is a heartfelt, faith-driven memoir chronicling her spiritual transformation from a life scarred by emotional and spiritual abuse to one rooted in unshakeable peace through total surrender to God. Through deeply personal stories, scripture, and divine encounters, Lynn walks readers through the trials she endured, the grace she embraced, and the vision she ultimately received. Her central message is clear: a life wholly committed to the Lord—mind, body, and spirit—can be one of supernatural peace, clarity, and divine intimacy.

What struck me most about this book was its raw honesty. The account of her abusive marriage is especially poignant. Her decision to surrender her whole heart to God—not merely attend church or read the Bible, but to give herself completely—marks a powerful turning point in the book.

But the most unforgettable part, by far, was her vision of Jesus. She describes being surrounded by blessings and then hearing the Lord speak behind her: “Remember, your eyes belong to me, not on the blessings​.” That moment was so vivid. Her description of falling to her knees in awe—unable to even look at Him—transcends the page.

While I enjoyed the memoir, the writing can feel repetitive at times, and the pace occasionally drifts, especially when recounting numerous personal miracles. But these are easy to overlook in light of Lynn’s sincerity. Her voice is clear and kind. She’s not preaching at you—she’s talking to you, like a big sister who’s been through fire and came out glowing with grace.

I would recommend Washing the Inside of the Cup to anyone walking through pain, especially Christian women facing spiritual exhaustion or abuse. It’s also a beautiful guide for anyone curious about what it means to truly “walk in the Spirit.” If you’ve ever asked, “Can God really speak to me?”—this book says yes. Loud and clear. And with love.
