Publisher’s Summary

Includes an audiobook exclusive interview with Lysa!

New York Times best-selling author Lysa TerKeurst unveils her heart amid shattering circumstances and shows listeners how to live assured when life doesn’t turn out like they expected.

What do you do when God’s timing seems questionable, His lack of intervention hurtful, and His promises doubtful?

Life often looks so very different than we hoped or expected. Some events may simply catch us off guard for a moment, but others shatter us completely. We feel disappointed and disillusioned, and we quietly start to wonder about the reality of God’s goodness.

Lysa TerKeurst understands this deeply. But she’s also discovered that our disappointments can be the divine appointments our souls need to radically encounter God. In It’s Not Supposed to Be This Way, Lysa invites us into her own journey of faith and, with grit, vulnerability, and honest humor, helps us to:

  • Stop being pulled into the anxiety of disappointment by discovering how to better process unmet expectations and other painful situations.
  • Train ourselves to recognize the three strategies of the enemy so we can stand strong and persevere through unsettling relationships and uncertain outcomes.
  • Discover the secret of being steadfast and not panicking when God actually does give us more than we can handle.
  • Shift our suspicion that God is cruel or unfair to the biblical assurance that God is protecting and preparing us.
  • Know how to encourage a friend and help her navigate hard realities with real help from God’s truth.

    ⭐ Incredible and Moving⭐

    I know I will listen to this book again, and again, I had to stop my car so I could cry "with" her. I love Lisa's work and I have shared this book with all of my friends and kindred readers who have raksBooks. Absolutely in your heart and soul. Always praying for you Lisa!

    Heartfelt and encouraging

    Awesome book with such rawness of emotions yet the kind of encouragement through Christ that you need because life even for the best of us isn't perfect or great at times. It's a good reminder that God is there for us always and His will for us is always better than our own. I enjoyed this book tremendously!

    Healing in this book!

    Loved and appreciated this book. Appreciated that Lysa is the narrator. Appreciated that she shared her private story of heart ache and betrayal. Appreciated immensely how she shows us how to rethink our own story and walk closely with God. One take away I'm focusing on the most is what we stare at is what we will stear towards. Thank you Lysa.

    Good Feels

    I enjoyed listening to the audio version of this book. I listened while at work which helped me to get through the day and help the hours to go faster.

    Yeah, but

    This book would have been more compelling if more detail of her particular struggles were given . I kept wanting ti say yeah, but to many of her declarations. It was refreshing to voice the existence of doubt and worry. Voice seemed hurried throughout the narration.
