Finding Peace
Why Happiness Isn’t the Goal — and Never Was
For years, we’ve been told that happiness is the destination.
That if we work hard enough, heal enough, believe enough, or wait long enough, life will eventually reward us with a lasting sense of contentment.
But what if happiness was never meant to carry that weight?
In Finding Peace, Keith Thorn offers a quiet, deeply honest exploration of what remains when happiness proves unreliable—and what becomes possible when we stop chasing it altogether. Read More
Bad Memories And Bad Dreams
What if the worst memories of your childhood hold the same power as a nightmare?
They feel real.
They shake your body.
They leave a mark.
But once they’re over, they cannot touch you—unless you keep reliving them.
In Bad Memories & Bad Dreams, author Keith Thorn offers a remarkable new way to understand the past: your mind stores emotional pain the same way it stores dreams—vivid, convincing, intense… yet no longer real. Read More
The Distance We Didn’t See
Families don’t fall apart because of politics, beliefs, or lifestyle choices.
They fall apart because pride speaks louder than humility… and ego speaks louder than love.
The Distance We Didn’t See is a deeply vulnerable reflection on family estrangement, late-in-life growth, and the quiet hope that grace can outlive the damage misunderstandings create.
Drawing from decades of mistakes, broken marriages, emotional reactions, and the long, slow journey of healing, Keith Thorn writes not as a victim, but as a man who finally understands the distance his children felt—and the distance he never saw. Read More
This Kindness Prepares Another
This Kindness Prepares Another is a deeply vulnerable reflection on mistakes, late growth, and the quiet hope that kindness can outlive our shortcomings. Drawing on an ancient truth—“one good deed prepares another”—Keith Thorn writes with humility about the patterns he carried, the pain he caused, and the distance that formed between him and his children.
This is not a book of excuses or defenses.
It is a book of responsibility, grace, and gentle truth-telling.
Thorn explores the man he used to be—reactive, stressed, unhealed—and the man he became later in life through years of surrender, learning, and love. He writes tenderly about Melody, the partner who witnessed his transformation, and with deep compassion for his children, who saw the history but not the healing. Read More

When Wisdom Isn’t Enough
We spend our lives learning, healing, improving, and collecting wisdom—yet the moment stress hits, we can still fall apart.
After decades of Ki-Aikido practice, spiritual growth, personal development, and writing nearly thirty books on wisdom and resilience, Keith Thorn found himself facing the most painful truth of all: he still reacted in ways that hurt the people he loved most. His temper flared when life pressed too hard. Criticism cut deeper than it should have. Old patterns resurfaced in moments that mattered. And no amount of knowledge seemed to protect him in the heat of real life. Read More
The Warrior in the Garden
The Strength to Withstand. The Wisdom to Withhold.
In a world that demands reaction, A Warrior in the Garden is a quiet revolt.
This powerful narrative follows Kaori, a girl forged in silence and raised through traditional sword arts, who learns that true strength isn’t found in striking first—but in knowing when not to strike at all.
From barefoot days in a cedar-scented dojo to battles fought without ever drawing her blade, Kaori grows into the kind of warrior the world rarely sees—one trained for war, yet choosing peace. A disciplined student of kenjutsu, she carries the ancient principles of breath, balance, and composure into a world that confuses calm for weakness. Read More
Understand the Past: Remember Without Reliving
A journey through faith, philosophy, and reflection—healing the story you tell yourself so you can live forward in peace.

In Understand the Past, Keith Thorn invites readers to explore the art of remembering without reliving. Blending faith, philosophy, and psychology, he offers a compassionate roadmap for turning memory into wisdom. We do not remember to keep a record; we remember to see clearly.
Thorn—known for his books on redemption and renewal—draws from personal experience, relational insight, and spiritual reflection to reveal how transformation begins when we stop dragging the past into the future. Each chapter helps readers separate event from identity, lesson from wound, so that grace can do its quiet work of restoration. Read More
What’s Your Nineveh?
Every one of us has a Nineveh — the calling we keep running from.
Years ago, Keith Thorn had a conversation with a friend who said, “I just can’t believe the story of Jonah and the whale.” Thorn’s reply was simple: “All miracles take the same faith—from Christ’s resurrection to waking up each morning.”
That moment planted a lifelong question: Why do we reject belief not because it’s unbelievable, but because of what belief would require of us?
In What’s Your Nineveh?, Thorn re-imagines the ancient story of Jonah as a modern mirror for the quiet ways we flee from purpose, conviction, and the words God lays on our hearts. When we suppress what we’re called to say or do, we end up swallowed by our own silence—an inner hell of unrest, anxiety, and regret. Read More
No Regrets
The Freedom Beyond What Can’t Be Changed
What if you could finally stop punishing yourself for the life you’ve already lived?
In No Regrets, Keith Thorn invites you into a deeply personal exploration of forgiveness — not the kind you ask for, but the kind you give yourself.
From a childhood marked by pain and silence to decades of striving, fighting, and failing forward, Thorn’s story reveals that peace doesn’t come from getting everything right. It comes from finally letting grace in. Written with the same raw honesty that shaped Faith Made Real and The Unwelcome Task, this book is for anyone who’s tired of carrying old weight — anyone ready to stop running from their past and start walking with it in peace.

Making the Best of the Rest
Finding Grace, Love, and Meaning in Life’s Second Act

In Making the Best of the Rest, author Keith Thorn invites you into an intimate, soul-stirring reflection on what it means to begin again when the road behind you is longer than the one ahead. From his coastal winters in Port Isabel, Texas, to memories of faith, family, and forgiveness, Keith shares stories that remind us: joy is still possible, peace is still reachable, and love—if we let it—still finds its way.

Our Bad Choices
A Wake-Up Call for Anyone Who Thinks They’re the Only One Paying the Price
We rarely see the full impact of our decisions while we’re making them. In the moment, we justify. We defend. We act out of emotion, fear, pride, or pain. We think we’re only hurting ourselves—or we don’t think at all. But somewhere down the line, after the dust settles, we start to notice the quieter casualties. The friend who went silent. The child who stopped trusting. The partner who stayed, but stopped hoping. This book is not about reliving shame. It’s about finally seeing what we couldn’t before—and choosing to grow from it.
