Pastor Tom Barnhill Encourages Readers to Overcome Abuse with God's Strength

MAITLAND, FL— Within the pages of Pastor Tom
Barnhill’s new book, Growing Beyond Your Roots: A Personal
Testimony of Hope, ($15.49, paperback, 9781498457767; $7.99, e-book, 9781498457774) readers will find the author’s
story of abuse, neglect, and, finally, freedom in Christ. Raised by an alcoholic
father and exasperated mother, Pastor Tom Barnhill escaped his horrible home
life at the age of eighteen, choosing to fight the Vietcong in the US Army. The
cycle of abuse continued through him, until his wife’s life-threatening
response forced him to open his eyes: he needed Christ.
“People are struggling in an ever-changing world and need to
know there is an anchor that will keep them moored to an unchanging God,” states the author. “If I can
get that message out to them after all I have been through, they will see the
light and the answer, which is Jesus Christ, and how HE can change their
situations and circumstances. I want each reader to realize that life is sometimes
too big for us to handle, but not for our Heavenly Father.”
Pastor
Tom Barnhill is a father and widower who is dedicated to helping others seek
