Tattoos on the Heart - by Gregory Boyle

Tattoos on the Heart is a collection of parables about kinship and the sacredness of life, drawn from Father Gregory Boyle's 20 years working with gangs in LA.

This book offers a stirring look at how full our lives could be if we could find joy in loving others and being loved unconditionally.

Through the stories of giant, tattooed Cesar, ten-year-old Lula, and Pedro, we learn about the importance of feeling worthy of God's love, the kind of patience necessary to rescue someone from darkness, and the impact unconditional love can have on our lives.

With its gorgeous and uplifting stories, Tattoos on the Heart amply demonstrates how boundless, restorative love can transform our lives and help us overcome shame, despair, and failure.

Whether you're looking for a powerful spiritual guide or simply a moving read, this book is sure to inspire and delight.
