Portrait of a Queen

A Portrait of a Queen: Finding Faith, Hope, and Healing After Loss is a powerful and tender memoir about what happens when grief enters sacred space and grace refuses to leave. In these heartfelt pages, Dr. Terence E. Leathers invites readers to walk with him through unimaginable loss, the day heaven interrupted church, and the long and holy journey toward healing. With vulnerability and pastoral clarity, he shares how faith is tested in tragedy, how love does not end at death, and how hope can rise even when the heart is heavy. Rooted in Scripture and lived experience, this book does not rush grief or offer shallow answers. Instead, it creates room for tears, questions, prayer, and quiet strength. It speaks to pastors and ministry leaders who must lead while hurting, and to everyday readers who are learning how to breathe again after loss. A Portrait of a Queen is not only a story of mourning. It is a testimony of resilience, remembrance, and renewal. It reminds us that God is still present in our pain, His promises remain faithful, and His peace continues to heal. You will grieve differently, love deeper, and learn how to live forward in faith.
