Acquainted with Sorrow: When Your Life Feels Like the Worst is Yet to Come

Acquainted with Sorrow: When

Your Life Feels Like the Worst is Yet to Come is

written for those who have lost their way or find themselves bogged down in

life. It is for the person who feels hopeless, or at the very least feels as if

they’re a bit off course. It’s for those who’ve lost their footing and find

themselves slipping towards the cliff. The dog-tired – dispirited ones. It’s

written for people who cannot see anything good in their present circumstances

or, at the very least, those for whom the big picture is beginning to blur -

colours fading and faith waning.

This book contains

a collection of amazing personal stories that take you behind the scenes of the

complex life of Terry Posthumus -revealing his secret to hope in some of his

life’s darkest and most painful tragic moments. From growing up as a

fatherless child to grieving the loss of his own child, losing the “dream

house on the hill,” or mourning the death of his wife – no matter the

circumstance – Terry found hope through worship and gratitude. Through it all,

he continued to place his confidence in God.

Acquainted with Sorrow shows how one man

overcame life’s darkest moments and experienced hope despite loss and pain by

clinging on to the safety line that hope in Jesus offers. And now his hope

can be yours.
