About the Author

A soulful storyteller, recovery mentor, and hospice chaplain, H. Rogers Thomson has spent a lifetime walking beside people at the most vulnerable crossroads of human experience. From banking and teaching to prison ministry, addiction recovery, and end-of-life care, his journey has been shaped by a deep commitment to truth, compassion, and sacred presence.

Blending the insight of long-term sobriety with contemplative spirituality, his writing explores surrender, healing, love, grief, and transformation. Equally at home in an AA meeting, a prison chapel, or at a bedside vigil, he speaks to the universal longing for connection, dignity, and peace.

Although an ordained Priest, his work is not about religion, but about awakening, choosing presence over fear, grace over judgment, and love over control. Through storytelling rooted in lived experience, he invites readers beyond survival and into a more honest, meaningful way of being human.
