Join Our Monthly Book Club: Every 1st Thursday @ 6:30 pm on Zoom.
Our September discussion will be dedicated to the book Embracing the Spirit: Womanist Perspectives on Hope, Salvation, and Transformation by Emilie M Townes. From the publisher’s description:
Once again, Emilie Townes brings together essays by leading womanist theologians, interweaving a concern for matters of race, gender, and class as these bear on the well-being of the African-American community. Her emphasis is not on evil and suffering, but on "hope, salvation, and transformation" for individuals and their communities.
