On a warm summer evening, Chuck Betters stood at his back gate, breathing in the scent of freshly cut grass and watching the sunset paint the sky. Surrounded by beauty and flooded with priceless memories, he reflected on life's hard places - his wife's battle with breast cancer, his own struggle with depression - and thanked God for the joy of leading a faithful congregation. In that quiet moment, it felt as though God had given him a glimpse of heaven.

He didn't know that a darkness unlike any he had ever faced was about to descend - one that would call into question every sermon he had preached, every truth he had proclaimed, and every word of hope he had held dear.

Just days later, the phone rang with words no parent ever wants to hear: "Your son has been in an accident. You need to come now."

The foundation of this book is built upon the sermons Chuck preached in the weeks following the death of his son, Mark. In these pages, he invites readers to walk with him down the road of grief as he wrestles to reconcile God's love with God's sovereignty.

Betters, Chuck F.: - Dr. Charles F. Betters discovered the richness of the Reformed Faith early in his ministry through a lifelong study of Scripture. Known for his verse-by-verse preaching and transparent approach to suffering, he helps others find hope in God's sovereignty. Following the tragic death of his sixteen-year-old son, Mark, he and his wife Sharon founded MARKINC Ministries (markinc.org) to offer help and hope to hurting people.Over his forty-eight-year pastoral career, Dr. Betters served churches in Philadelphia and Delaware, founded Red Lion Christian Academy, and led Glasgow Reformed Presbyterian Church for three decades. His teaching has reached audiences worldwide through radio, television, and online platforms. He is the author of Teaching Them Young and Harlots & Heroines, and co-author of Treasures of Faith with Sharon. Now retired from full-time ministry, Chuck founded Anchored Hope Biblical Counseling in 2020, now Anchored Virtual (Anchoredvirtual.co) and continues to lead MARKINC. He treasures large, noisy gatherings with their four children, 14 grandchildren, and 11 great-grandchildren-and enjoys golfing with Sharon.
