Almost gone more times than he can count, Timothy F. Terrell should not be here to tell this story. By every reasonable measure: combat, foster care, group homes, DYS, prison, and nights spent on the edge of suicide. His life should have ended years ago. Yet again and again, in places where hope should have died, something, or rather Someone, refused to let go.
Almost Gone, Still Here is a raw, unpolished memoir of survival, faith, trauma, and redemption. Terrell invites you into the real battles most people never see: the war that follows you home, the weight of survivor's guilt, the collapse of relationships, and the 3 a.m. conversations with a God you're not even sure you believe in anymore. This is not a neat church testimony where everything wraps up cleanly in a bow. It is an honest look at what it means to keep waking up when life has broken you more times than you can count.
From foster care and institutional systems to combat deployments and prison yards, Terrell writes from lived experiences, not theories. He speaks the language of those who carry invisible wounds: veterans, addicts, trauma survivors, and anyone who has been told, directly or indirectly, that they are too damaged, too difficult, or too far gone. Along the way, he shows how God met him in hospital rooms, cells, parking lots, and long, ugly nights of doubt and anger, often when he least deserved it and least wanted it.

This book is for you if:
- You've wondered why you're still alive when so many others aren't.
- You love someone who seems determined to self-destruct and don't know how to reach them.
- You wrestle with PTSD, moral injury, addiction, or shame, and can't see a way forward.
- You're trying to reconcile faith in God with a life story that doesn't make sense.
