Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born in a family in which no one else can read, Saman becomes a fearless writer, who knows that her words have the power to set paper ablaze. She picks up her pen, and writes with all her passion, the story of herself and Aman. Titled The Story of Us, her novel reaches Aman's bedside, when his wife Sasha gives it to him as an anniversary present. Aman is then forced to confront his past, which he has left behind twenty years ago, burying it beneath his intense pursuit of a brilliant neurosurgical career. She spends two decades running after memories of their time together, as he spends the same running away from them. Aman and Saman remain in each other's eyes-he as the sparkle in hers-cherished and welcomed, and she as the sand in his-gritty and blurring. The narrative touches on the spirit of sacrifice, the quest for education amidst poverty, the toil of surgical training in a foreign country, the grief of childlessness, and the power of true love. Torn Pages is a novel about the incomplete chapters of a story, and how they finally come together.

Download or read book Torn written by Justin Lee and published by Jericho Books. This book was released on 2012-11-13 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An evangelical Christian examines the impact of sexuality, the LGBTQ+ movement, and the future of the church in this thoughtful, deeply researched guide to navigating and mending the social and political division in our families and churches. As a teenager and young man, Justin Lee felt deeply torn. Nicknamed "God Boy" by his peers, he knew that he was called to a life in the evangelical Christian ministry. But Lee harbored a secret: He also knew that he was gay. In this groundbreaking book, Lee recalls the events--his coming out to his parents, his experiences with the "ex-gay" movement, and his in-depth study of the Bible--that led him, eventually, to self-acceptance. But more than just a memoir, TORN provides insightful, practical guidance for all committed Christians who wonder how to relate to gay friends or family members--or who struggle with their own sexuality. Convinced that "in a culture that sees gays and Christians as enemies, gay Christians are in a unique position to bring peace," Lee demonstrates that people of faith on both sides of the debate can respect, learn from, and love one another.
