Some kind of crazy - Terry Wardle

An unforgettable story, in the tradition of Hillbilly Elegy and Educated, that reveals how a careful look at a broken past can open a path to profound healing and a satisfying future.

Terry
Wardle grew up in the Appalachian coalfields of southwestern
Pennsylvania, part of a hardscrabble family of coal miners whose cast of characters
included a hot-tempered grandfather with a predilection for blowing up
houses, a distant and disapproving father, and a mother who disciplined
him with harsh words and threats of hellfire.



After
enduring a crazy childhood, Terry graduated to a troubled adolescence,
and then on to what seemed like a successful transition into adulthood,
earning multiple degrees and founding one of the country's fastest
growing churches. But all was not well.



All
his life, he felt he was never enough. Plagued by a truckload of fear
no matter what he accomplished, he fell down the ladder of success into the
deepest ditch of his life-ending up in a psychiatric hospital.
Fortunately, that's when he discovered that Jesus has no fear of
ditches.



In
fact, Jesus does some of his best work with people who find themselves
there. In sharing his remarkable journey, Terry offers hope that healing and
wholeness are possible no matter how broken a life may be. His
larger-than-life story will help you move forward along your own healing
path.
