Project Lina: Bringing Our Whole Selves to Islam

by Tamara Gray, Najiyah Diana Maxfield

The Project Lina book and workshops are designed to bring converts to a place of joyful confidence in themselves, their faith, and their place in their families and communities. Lina is the Arabic word for palm tree, and the three modules found in this book - Know Yourself, Declare your Independence, and Tend your Ties - provide a springboard from which converts can grow into community members who, like palm trees, have deep roots, strong but flexible trunks, and bear wonderful, life-sustaining fruit. Whether you're new to Islam or a seasoned convert with tales and advice of her own to share, Project Lina will help us continue to bring our whole selves to Islam. It is the open arms, the spiritual guidance, and the balanced way forward that converts need for a healthy transition from newbies to vital members of their communities - and then to the leaders our communities need.

About the author

Tamara Gray has always been obsessed with vampires and werewolves.

Starting at an early age until now Tamara has watched every movie ever made on the subject. Her motto is to embrace fear and face it head on, or just leap up basement stairs to get away from the imaginary creatures chasing her. Either motto works!

In 2003, Tamara completed her first book The Silver Fang and is presently working on the second of the series The Wolves Den. She likes her books fast paced and action packed and the Samantha Houston series is a non-stop thrill ride.
