Faithfully Dissident Daughters

Women

“The wisest teachers, prophets, and storytellers don’t simply serve answers: they teach us how to ask difficult questions. And I often tell my children that God loves questions. Questions invite closeness, clarity, and connection. If we love someone or something, our inquiry honors and feeds that love. And if something is true, our questions cannot diminish or destroy it. That is why I have always appreciated Chelsea’s voice. She asks brave questions with humility, spice, and fierce love for God and for people. Rather than imploding our faith constructs, Faithfully Dissident Daughters invites us into more integrated, more honest, and ultimately more beautiful ones. I am grateful for Chelsea’s relentless question asking and for the way it gently draws us all toward greater intimacy with God, ourselves, and one another.”
