Prevailing Purpose How I Survived the Darkest Moments of My Life

The life of Daryl Petree is a life of unwavering faith and trust in the heart of God. While there are numerous tales of rags to riches in the secular realm, Job-like testimonies from men and women of faith are particularly powerful as it confirms the book of Job as inspired. The journey of Daryl Petree begins as a boy called to preach the gospel. Spending most of his ministry as an evangelist, Dr. Petree encounters tragedy along the way: loss of a son, the breakup of a family, battles with anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder; as well as car accidents, a brutal beating, and the death of a granddaughter.

After preaching the gospel to thousands around the globe, he finds himself living out of his car. However, Daryl finds his Job restoration moments through encounters with angels, strangers and life-long mentoring by his most respected ministry colleague. Daryl Petree's story is touching, gripping, and awe-inspiring. Each chapter brings the reader to ask, "where is this headed next?" While every person's spiritual journey is unique, every time a testimony of life restored through faith is shared, it confirms God's grace and non-believers with the challenge of ultimate salvation. Daryl's journey to the depths of despair and back will inspire everyone who reads this book to stand up and walk into their future with the Lord by their side.
