I'm Black. I'm Christian. I'm Methodist. by Rudy Rasmus

3.0

Ten essays written by various authors on their experiences being black, Christian, and Methodist. Each essay centers around a different thematic element and is supported by personal anecdotes and lived experiences. Each author recounts their personal spiritual and faith journey's within and without the Methodist church. I love storytelling. I think it's a powerful tool in the quest to understand perspectives that might feel vastly different to our own. It is harder to dehumanize others when we hear and know their stories. It becomes personal and tangible and serves to connect people with common purpose. Connection can be transformative.
