From Despair to Connection: A Father's Odyssey Through Parenthood, Marriage, and Faith
WINNER: 2023 Nonfiction BOOK OF THE YEAR, American Writing Awards
Embark on a raw and gripping journey as Ken confronts his son's incarceration, sharing about parenting demons, marriage resilience, and spiritual rediscovery.
The reader gets to witness this father of three grapple with self-doubt, questioning his abilities as a father. What did I do wrong? Later he creatively uses letters to reconnect with his estranged son, leading to the development of an entirely new relationship.
After being married for almost 40 years, he asked himself: How are we going to survive this? Ken recounts some of the strained conversations he and his wife had as they coped with the challenges of this crisis.
Having once served as a pastor, doubts about his faith haunted him, leading him to question God: How could God allow this in my family? The spiritual insights he gained were not superficial or clichéd. These realizations were forged through genuine struggle and refining fire.
Within these pages, Ken candidly shares:
What he would do differently as a parent.
How he learned to trust his instincts, not only as a parent, but also in his marriage and his faith.
With a distinct voice and disarming honesty, "Letters to My Son in Prison" is more than just a personal story. It also brims with practical insights that can help those navigating similar challenges.

Ken Guidroz co-authored a popular business book in 2010, Beyond the 401(k). Two years later he co-founded a training program for financial advisors called Cash Balance Coach which has educated thousands. Personal writing, however, is his passion-and has become a lifesaver. It started when wrote extensively in his journal to stay sane while his sons struggled with addiction, then continued when he wrote to Lucas while he was in prison, and culminated with this book about reconnecting with Lucas, fatherhood, marriage, and faith.Ken lives in Santa Clarita, California, with his wife, Joyce, to whom he has been married for over forty years. His three sons and their families live close by. He loves all things racket-sports, especially pickleball, and spends a lot of time hiking in the Sierra with his beloved dog, Mumford.
