Trauma's Labyrinth: Reflections of a Wounded Healer
2022 Bronze Living Now Book Award 2022 Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Award Trauma can feel like a labyrinth, twisting on itself like a maze of despair, without end or exit. This seems particularly true in today’s chaotic world of pandemics, climate change, social conflict, and systemic violence.

The House by the Side of the Road: 1932-1982
The House by the Side of the Road is the story of the impossible dream come true. It is the story of Paul T.

Laura Kerr tells the story of this young man's dream as it becomes a reality through his perseverance and prayer, through the steadfast encouragement of his wife Elizabeth, through the generosity of farmer Ernest Warner who gave his land, and through the dedication and generosity of spirit of all who have participated in this grand experiment in faith that today is known as The Center.
