Overview

The daughter of a beloved and devout Presbyterian pastor, Wynne Leon wandered from the fold as she grew up and moved away from home. Now, in her deeply moving memoir about finding healing through the reconciliation between her own spiritual practices and her father's Christian faith, Leon explores solace and healing in the most unexpected places. Drawing from the work of famed psychiatrist and author Dr. Scott Peck, Leon explores the stages of faith and how, despite the love, commitment, and respect in her childhood home, she didn't follow her parents into the church as an adult. Regardless of the likely disappointment this caused her father, he remained kind, loving, and open to dialogue. As Leon turned to meditation to cope with challenges in her life, she realized that despite the differences in actual beliefs, she and her father shared a lot of common ground. As they discussed these connections, Leon's respect for her father grew even more-and she began to record their conversations. Helpful for parents and children who diverge in their beliefs but remain committed to each other, Finding My Father's Faith celebrates the unbreakable bond of love.
