The Only Way Forward Is Back - A Story of War, Adoption and Finding Your Purpose (Paperback)

The Only Way Forward Is Back, A Story of War, Adoption and Finding Your Purpose in God's Plan

War orphan Jackson TerKeurst’s remarkable story of adoption and faith teaches us to notice God’s faithful presence in our lives so we can look toward the future with hope.

The grandson of a witch doctor. The son of a town chief. An orphan, a war statistic, a nameless boy trying to survive gunfire and starvation in the Liberian Civil War. Jackson TerKeurst used to find his identity in scarcity and trauma. Today he finds it in knowing he is a child of God.

Jackson’s story of coming to America as a teenager with little education, being adopted by a Christian family, and going on to graduate college and start his own business has been featured on the Oprah Winfrey Network and the Today Show. Now, for the first time, Jackson shares his spiritual journey against the backdrop of his incredible biography as he inspires us to see how God can redeem the pain in our own lives.

The Only Way Forward Is Back a riveting account of perseverance, sacrificial love, and transformative grace. It invites us to interpret our personal stories through the lens of a literal and spiritual orphan who learned to hold fast to his identity as God’s beloved child—and inspires each one of us to do the same.
