Taillights on the Road to Healing is a deeply personal and universally resonant story of love, trauma, recovery, and resilience. In this open-hearted, vulnerable coming-out memoir, author Kenneth Burr recounts his transformation through transportation, traveling down the road toward healing childhood trauma through faith, relationships, and self-discovery.
Years after surviving adolescent sexual abuse, Ken grapples with his true identity and the intersection of faith and sexuality. He journeys toward wholeness and acceptance while road-tripping across America and Europe, ultimately discovering his authentic self while behind the wheel of a Buick woody, rare 1950s convertibles, sexy sports cars, and modified classic trucks. Through falling in love during a time of loss, building a family, and discovering the profound impact of faith through his ministry, Ken learns that every road, no matter how many potholes, offers an opportunity for a new perspective.
For LGBTQ Christians and all those who feel flattened by binary systems of faith and sexuality, Taillights offers air in the tires and a path toward new beginnings.
