On the same topic I’ve been hitting a lot recently:
My pastor kindly asked me to read and review Bloodlines for him. His interest wasn’t merely in the book, rather he wanted to know how he could serve his congregants better, which I applaud and am most grateful for. Ever since reading Piper’s book I have been thinking about my experience at my local church and in my Christian walk. I have always been one of the few black females in my church, though I will say there are a growing number of young college females. The purpose of this article is to outline some of the thoughts I have had that I haven’t seen considered. I don’t presume to speak for all reformed black females but I do think these issues need to be addressed or at the least looked at by white pastors. I am black, female and reformed which makes me a bit of a “rare breed”.
Dear Pastor: From a black female congregant→
