Story Of The Emotional Roller Coaster Ride (Book of Sorrows)

Rev. Larry W. Pettit has dedicated forty-eight years to ministry, serving as a pastor, evangelist, and missionary. For this reason, his pastoral journey spans the Bible Missionary Church, Pilgrim Nazarene Church, and Independent denominations, where he has led congregations, preached revivals, and inspired youth and family camps nationwide. Moreover, his ministry’s reach extends globally, with missionary work in New Guinea, multiple missions to Moscow, Russia, India, and London, England. His profound experiences and reflections on sorrow and loss have been eloquently captured in his acclaimed book of sorrows.

Rev. Pettit’s personal life is equally remarkable. He married his high school sweetheart, Lizzy, with whom he shares three children: Melissa, Nathan, and Matthew. His latest book Death In The Parsonage (book of sorrows) is a deeply moving narrative that chronicles the roller coaster of emotions he endured following Lizzy’s sudden death. Through this love story book by Larry Pettit, he invites readers into his journey of love, loss, and healing.
