Women
“Dr. Parker skillfully draws our attention to the complex intersection of race, class, gender, and sexuality through the stories of biracial women. She knits together a new narrative to create a vibrant tapestry of strength and resilience that is born out of struggle, yet forges liberating pathways toward a future filled with hope. A balm for the weary soul.”
Church Leadership & Ministry
“William Kincaid draws the circle of trust, truth, and transformation wide and invites us to pull up a chair and join in. We come to the circle, trusting that what we see will teach us, the truths we hear will heal us, and the transformation we feel will inspire us to join God’s work of becoming the church fit for today’s world. A timely and treasured resource for the church!”
Ethics, Culture & Social Issues
“Cosby calls us to reorient our moral, ethical, and theological compass toward the distinct experience of descendants of slaves.”
Christian Living
“Hamman takes us on a journey into mindfulness, a mindfulness of ourselves, of those we meet along the way, of the places we go, and the One who always goes before us and with us.”
Biblical Studies & Commentaries
“Crowder draws our attention to the realities of mothering at the intersection of race, class, and religion. She weaves the narratives of mothers from the Bible into our present-day contexts to help us think critically about what it means to be a black mother in today’s world. Crowder opens the door of womanist maternal thought for scholars, pastors, and laypeople alike to enter into an emergent school of thought and depart with new and transforming insights for the academy, church, and home. A refreshing read!”
