About the Book
A memoir shaped by loss, refuge, and faith.
The story begins with a devastating family tragedy and follows its emotional impact across generations. Through vivid personal history, Kenneth David Musser recounts the wounds of childhood abuse, the refuge he found in his grandfather’s love, and the faith that carried him through depression, anxiety, and years of struggle.
Book Overview
This memoir centers on a Kansas family whose lives were marked by a terrible loss on New Year’s Day of 1927, when the author’s grandmother died in a fire. The event left lasting emotional scars on the family, especially on the author’s mother, who witnessed it as a child. From there, the book traces the generational consequences of trauma while also illuminating a counterpoint of love, prayer, and spiritual endurance.
Kenneth David Musser writes candidly about the emotional and physical abuse he endured as a boy, the depression and anxiety that followed him into adulthood, and the five places of refuge that helped him endure. Throughout the memoir, his grandfather’s love remains a guiding presence, and the story ultimately points toward healing, grace, and the enduring love of God.
