Book Synopsis The Door of the Heart by : Diana Finfrock Farrar
Download or read book The Door of the Heart written by Diana Finfrock Farrar and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2014-03-26 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Door of the Heart By Diana Finfrock Farrar Tammy is the wife of Ed Sloan, a prominent figure in the Texas political scene who is struggling over the fallout of the bullying of gay student Jamie ODell, which also involved Sloans son. The issue sends shockwaves through the lives of Ed and his colleagues, friends, and family, especially Tammy, who begins to consider gay rights from a new angle. The author follows Tammys journey as the once-dutiful wife and mother opens her heart to Jamies mother and slowly stands up against anti-gay views, both at home and in public. This book brings gay issues home and depicts the mental and emotional work people must do to change their views and accept each other. The story is rooted in faith from a range of perspectives, showing how Christianity can both harden and open peoples hearts. Although a work of fiction, this novel is based upon true stories and current events, and endnotes throughout the text and a list of LGBT resources shine a light on the book for the educational tool that it can be. But Farrars openhearted willingness to be gentle to her characters is sure to make the book appealing to a broad audience, especially to people of faith struggling to understand the intersection between LGBT issues and their beliefs. This novel explores faith, gay issues, and standing up for what is right. It is an emotional and open-minded read for everyone.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Door to Satisfaction Lama Zopa Rinpoche reveals a text he discovered in a cave in the Himalayas that captures the essential point of Buddhist training. Rinpoche says, "Only when I read this text did I come to know what the practice of Dharma really means." Without proper motivation, it does not matter what we do. Whether reciting prayers, meditating, or enduring great hardships, if our actions are devoid of good intention they will not become Dharma practice. Proper motivation transcends our ordinary, ephemeral desires and ultimately seeks the happiness of all living beings. "In your life," says Rinpoche, "there is nothing to do other than to work for others, to cherish others. There is nothing more important in your life than this." This powerful, simple message applies to Buddhists and non-Buddhists alike--we all have the power to unlock our greatest potential. Open this book and open the door to a timeless path leading to wisdom and joy.
