Book Description
The Road to Freedom is the path of hope for all of us who are stuck. With practical application and inspiration, Johnny Baker shares his story of recovering from alcoholism and offers the truths he has learned from his 25 years with Celebrate Recovery. Baker’s father, John, founded Celebrate Recovery when Baker was 15 years old. Later, Baker became involved with alcohol himself. Even though he saw his parents’ marriage heal and watched his dad become a new person, he had to experience his own journey of healing. Baker began the process of recovery as a young adult. Now he serves on the leadership team of Celebrate Recovery, sharing his testimony of how God brought him back home. In the years since leaving alcohol behind, Baker has witnessed thousands of other lives change through the power of Christ. Whether you are dealing with substance abuse, relational struggles, or eating challenges, or you simply want to let go of what is holding you back in life, you will find answers in The Road to Freedom. In addition to telling his own story, Baker offers ten principles of healing. These life lessons remind you that pain has a purpose, small and steady improvement lasts longer than overnight change, serving others leads to deeper healing, and facing your problems is the only way to heal. The Road to Freedom will help you move from coping with hurts, hang-ups, and habits to the hope and health that only Jesus can bring.

Book Description
Based on lectures given in Galway in 1994, The Healing Road became an Irish best-seller in 1995, and has been a quiet seller since then as word of its value has spread from reader to reader. A self-help book based on Dr. Wasserman's decades of experience as a psychiatristpsychotherapist, this 2012 edition is published with only minor changes from the original. "In The Healing Road, Harvey Wasserman brings us on a journey into the very centre of the human psyche - a journey into forgotten parts of our own heart and soul. It is a book of internal pilgrimage, a book naming the wonder and miracle of unconditional love." Colin Morrison "This book is positive in a practical way - it isn't just theory, rather it knits theory and practicality. It is a quiet book that will seep into your life and shine new light into promising corners." John Mackenna Harvey Wasserman, a New Yorker by birth, graduated from Queens College of New York City with a Bachelor of Science degree in chemistry. He completed his psychiatric training at the Menninger Foundation, Topeka, Kansas, where he was awarded a Fellowship in Psychiatry. In addition to 36 years in the private practice of psychiatry, he served as Assistant Clinical Professor of Psychiatry, Yale University College of Medicine from 1966 to 1981, and was Director of Education and Training at one of the Medical School teaching and research hospitals. He has studied many forms of psychotherapy and healing, from bioenergetic analysis to traditional Chinese medicine, and has had contact with tribal peoples and native healers all over the world. He lives in the Burren in Co Clare, Ireland, and practices psychotherapy in Galway. His website is: http: //harveywasserman.ie.

Book Description
John is driving north to escape Mexico and the thousand memories that peck constantly at his festering wounds. He has no destination, seeking only a severance from pain as he stumbles down his road to nowhere. He picks up a bedraggled hitchhiker in the desert, hoping the company will keep him awake on the long boring highway. What he expected would be a brief diversion from boredom turns out to be a long road strewn with fear, frustration and terror. John finds his career as an engineer has ill-prepared him to cope with the problems of the new world into which he gets dragged by this dusty, cynical but beautiful hitchhiker. John and Sarah are running from problems of both past and present, and though they now flee from darkness to darkness together, they bring light, love and enlightenment into each other's lives and confront their fate with a new passion for living. New Mexico serves as a backdrop for their fleeing, their hiding and the lancing of wounds that had set them both on their journey down THE HEALING ROAD.
