Introducing a Theology of Black GirlhoodKhristi Lauren Adams's faith was shaped by her experiences as a Black girl. Drawing on her life story as well as the life stories of other Black girls, Womanish Theology centers their experiences as a rich source of spiritual teaching for us all.This book introduces a new branch of thought Adams calls womanish theology, a play on the womanist tradition (the theology of Black womanhood). By exploring how prayer, salvation, suffering, hospitality, and more play out in many Black girls' lives, she helps us discover that theology is for everyone and that the whole community of God can learn from their insights.
