In the book, Tattoos on the heart Boyles themes are composed of compassion, disgrace, slow work and kinship.  Each theme has stories of gang members from the "gang capital" of Los Angeles. Throughout each theme he interprets god as being compassion and finding god through disgrace known as “shame”. As well as the process of opening up to god will take slow work and hope. God gives unconditionally love but were the ones who need to accept his love and through the acceptance we go through paths in our life's to challenge our love for him.  
Boyle intercepts God as compassion, he gives us love unconditionally. According to Tattoos on the heart "God is compassionate, loving kindness. All we're asked to do is to be in the world who God is. certainly compassion was the wallpaper of Jesus soul, the contour of his heart, it was who he was."(62) This world is under God and his only desire is us to be full of compassion and kindness towards each other. However most of us can't even accomplish his only desire he ask from us. In this world there's so much corruption and violence as well as poverty that we as humans failed to accomplish god desire. The world of God was turned into a wild jungle that it left us to find our paths in our life's to find the true meaning of God nation and to truly accomplished this quest is by discovering on our own.
If we allow others to discover for us were just being control to believe. Some of us are ignorant to believe that some religions use “God” to fear and control its daughters and sons. When in reality is our own decision to believe that were worthy of god love. An Example can be Caesar he learn how to feel worthy of god love by accepting Boyle as a father and him as his son. Caesar discovered that he is a son worth having as long with accepting god’s love. Caesar story shows how we go through paths known as "experiences" in our lives to accept god loves. Even though god gives his love, were the ones that are in charge of accepting the love he gives and no matter our situation we would love him back.
According to Tattoos on the heart “we all belong to ourselves the one who created us, each other. We are all equal and we are all deserving of compassionate care within a community-a kinship. Boyle illustrates that god loves us no matter our situation and our guilt. All of us deserve to be love by him and others by creating a community through compassion. Another theme that Boyles reveals is Disgrace, Boyle interprets Carmen story on how she is a heroin addict, a gang member, and a fighter. Carmen admits to Boyle that she’s a disgrace. Carmen story shows how disgrace can lead with guilt and feeling bad about our actions and shame on our self’s however through that process we’re driven to discover god through our own guilt and accept that anyone no matter what’s our actions and shames we deserve to feel the worthy of god’s love. One story in Tattoos on the heart, Pedro we understand that patience allow us to rescue someone from the darkness. This story illustrates how disgrace and patience can rescue you’re self from your own darkness that you create. Most of us are afraid of the world but we don’t stop to think that were afraid of the shadows that we create our self’s.
