TerKeurst published her first book, Living Life on Purpose: Discovering God's Best for Your Life, in 2000. Several of her books have been New York Times bestsellers, including It's Not Supposed to Be This Way, Unglued: Making Wise Choices in the Midst of Raw Emotions, Uninvited: Living Loved When You Feel Less Than, Left Out, and Lonely, Forgiving What You Can't Forget, and The Best Yes: Making Wise Decisions in the Midst of Endless Demands.

Critical reception Her books Uninvited: Living Loved When You Feel Less Than, Left Out, and Lonely, Forgiving What You Can’t Forget: Discover How to Move On, Make Peace with Painful Memories, and Create a Life That’s Beautiful Again, and It's Not Supposed to Be This Way received starred reviews from Publishers Weekly. A review for her 2014 book The Best Yes: Making Wise Decisions in the Midst of Endless Demands reads, "TerKeurst's often self-deprecating humor and ability to be vulnerable, combined with insightful Bible references, make this a book women can relate to in a hundred little ways each day". In 2015, TerKeurst published a book for children, Win or Lose, I Love You!, which was illustrated by Jana Christy. This book was met with mixed reception from Publishers Weekly, which wrote, "As a teaching tool, it's sure to have its uses, though the story itself never rises beyond its instructive goals". Kirkus Reviews similarly received the book as, "Didactic? To be sure, but it’s a much-needed lesson that goes down easily". Publishers Weekly praised the conversational tone of TerKeurst's 2016 book Uninvited: Living Loved When You Feel Less Than, Left Out, and Lonely. The audiobook adaptation was read by Ginny Welsh. About her 2018 book It's Not Supposed to Be This Way, Publishers Weekly noted "[h]er transparency, wit, and spiritual insight make this skillfully crafted volume feel like time spent in honest conversation with a trusted friend". Publishers Weekly gave the 2020 book Forgiving What You Can't Forget: Discover How to Move On, Make Peace with Painful Memories, and Create a Life That’s Beautiful Again a positive review, noting, "TerKeurst’s fans will love this stirring, realistic look at confronting the arduous aspects of forgiveness". Personal life TerKeurst is a native of Tallahassee, Florida. Her parents divorced when she was in middle school. She was raised a Christian, but gave up on her faith when her 16-month-old sister died. She graduated from Furman University in South Carolina. In 2008, TerKeurst published an essay about an abortion she had before her marriage. She has five children. Terkeurst reconciled with her husband Art TerKeurst, who she said was repeatedly unfaithful and abused substances. In December 2018, TerKeurst and her husband renewed their vows near their home in Waxhaw, N.C. In January 2022, TerKeurst announced on social media that she had finally decided to end their marriage saying that he had since broken those vows again. "I now believe the wisest (and hardest) choice I can make is to stop fighting to save my marriage of 29 years and, instead, accept reality." Selected works TerKeurst, Lysa (2005).
