    "description": "Thirty years ago, Gregory Boyle founded Homeboy Industries, a gang-intervention, rehabilitation, and reentry program in Los Angeles, the gang capital of the world. In Tattoos on the Heart, his debut book, he distills his experience working with gang members into a breathtaking series of parables inspired by faith.\n\nFrom giant, tattooed Cesar, shopping at JC Penney fresh out of prison, you learn how to feel worthy of God&;s love. From ten-year-old Pipi you learn the importance of being known and acknowledged. From Lulu you come to understand the kind of patience necessary to rescue someone from the dark&;as Father Boyle phrases it, we can only shine a flashlight on a light switch in a darkened room.\n\nThis is a motivating look at how to stay faithful in spite of failure, how to meet the world with a loving heart, and how to conquer shame with boundless, restorative love.",
