THE
DOOR OF THE HEART
by
Diana
Finfrock Farrar
Married for twenty years, Tammy & Ed Sloan suddenly find themselves
on opposite sides of a hot button current social issue when their high school
aged son is punished for bullying a fellow athlete who is gay. The wife of a
conservative Texas politician, Tammy begins to reexamine her values after the
incident blows up in the media and embarks on a mission not just to view LGBT
issues through a loving Christian perspective, but to become an active
participant for positive change. A generous look at the gay community through a
Christian lens, Diana Finfrock Farrar’s novel interweaves multiple story lines
that feature endearing characters, both gay and straight, each confronting the
consequences of homophobia and demonstrating a need for the understanding and
the embracing of the LGBT community, especially in the heart of Bible-belt
reactionaryism.

First time novelist, Diana Finfrock Farrar, is a native Texan and
financial adviser representative who loves snow skiing and traveling, competes
in sprint triathlons, and is an ordained deacon and elder in the Presbyterian
church (PCUSA) where she sings in the choir every Sunday. Blessed to have been born into a family that
taught her how to live a life of faith, love and relationship — the idea of
family has always been at her center.
Feeling called to make a difference, Farrar has penned her first novel
with the hope of educating her readers on issues of empowerment, injustice, and
compassion. She and her wife, Charlotte, were married in Ontario, Canada in
2010. They live in Texas and share five
children and three grandchildren.
