Publisher's Summary

In The Name of the Father is an inspirational novel about faith, family, and the power of forgiveness. In life, our capacity to love and our ability to receive love is learned from those who nurture us. It is cultivated and sometimes destroyed by observing the two people who love us the most.

This story is about a young woman named Joy. As a man of God, husband and father, Lester was supposed to be his daughter's hero, instead he became the man she despised, and Joy could not move on until she forgave him.

"This is a story I had to tell because I know we have difficulties throughout life that shape how we love ourselves and others. It is so important that we stop pretending life is perfect and shed light on painful issues like divorce, infidelity and abuse."

"I hope this family's drama, pain, faith and triumph reminds you that we are all human, and as a result not perfect, but forgiven by God."

"Let's forgive more, love more and share stories that will inspire others to try again."
