Finding My Way Back Home
What if finding your way home has less to do with where you live and more to do with discovering who you truly are?
In Finding My Way Back Home, H. Rogers Thomson opens up about a life shaped by childhood trauma, addiction, recovery, spiritual growth, love and loss. Spanning more than eight decades, his story is an honest reflection on the struggles that shape us, the experiences that change us and the search for a deeper sense of purpose and belonging.
Rogers grew up caught between fear and love, carrying the pain of childhood abandonment, abuse and a longing to feel accepted. As he grew older, he faced the challenges of raising three children, navigating difficult relationships and dealing with struggles of his own. Alcohol became a way to escape the pain, but over time, it led him further away from the life he wanted.
At the age of thirty-seven, Rogers found a path to recovery through Alcoholics Anonymous. Getting sober changed his life, but it was only the beginning of a much deeper journey. Through spiritual exploration, prison ministry, hospice chaplaincy and twenty-six years of caring for the woman he loved, he began to understand the importance of compassion, forgiveness, surrender and being present for others.
As he reflects on his experiences, Rogers explores questions of faith, the soul, higher consciousness and what may lie beyond death. His understanding of spirituality grew beyond traditional beliefs, shaped by the people he met, the hardships he endured and the love he experienced. Along the way, he discovered that even painful experiences can lead to greater understanding, and that loss can bring a new appreciation for the connections we share.
Finding My Way Back Home is a deeply personal memoir about recovery, healing, spiritual awakening and the search for meaning. It speaks to anyone who has struggled with childhood wounds, addiction, grief or the feeling of not quite belonging. Through his story, Rogers reflects on the power of unconditional love, the value of forgiveness and the possibility of finding peace even when life does not unfold as expected.
More than a story about overcoming hardship, this memoir is about learning to live with greater awareness, accepting ourselves and discovering what truly matters. For readers exploring spirituality, personal growth or a renewed sense of purpose, Rogers offers a thoughtful reminder that finding home may not mean reaching a particular place. It may mean finding a sense of peace and wholeness within ourselves.
