Life doesn’t always make sense. Some days you wake up and feel like you’re drifting, wounded by the past, uncertain about the future. But what if you’re not here by chance? What if the pain, the twists, and the losses were part of a bigger picture?

In his book Why Am I Here – Is It God’s Plan, Robert “Stormy” Castleberry walks us through a life shaped by trauma and transformation. From losing his younger brother in a tragic fire, enduring a fractured childhood, and surviving a devastating car wreck, Stormy’s journey isn’t just survival—it’s testimony.

Castleberry’s life has been anything but easy. But what makes his story powerful isn’t just what happened to him—it’s how God’s grace carried him through. Every heartbreak, every setback, every miracle along the way pointed to one truth: God had a plan.

Feeling lost doesn’t mean you’re off course. In fact, it might be a sign that you’re being redirected. Stormy’s life shows that even the ugliest detours can become divine appointments.

Your existence isn’t random. That recurring question—“Why am I here?”—is one that Castleberry wrestles with openly. His answer? It’s not about the house you buy or the title you earn. It’s about how you live, how you love, and how you reflect God’s grace.

You’re here to serve, to grow, and to impact. Even if life hasn’t been kind, even if people have failed you, there is still purpose in your presence.

This book is more than a memoir. It’s a guide for anyone who has walked through the fire, questioned their worth, or wondered if God still sees them. Castleberry’s message is clear: You’re not alone, you’re not forgotten, and you’re not here by accident.

If you’ve been asking why, this story may be the answer your heart needs.

God’s plan isn’t always easy to see, but it’s always good. Trust it. Lean into it. And remember—you’re exactly where you need to be.
