Speaker Christena Cleveland, “God is a Black Woman”

Free admission when you buy your copy of “God is a Black Woman” at Flintridge Bookstore. Ask for a ticket with your purchase. The bookstore will also be selling “God is a Black Woman” the evening of the event at La Canada Congregational Church.

For years, Christena Cleveland spoke about racial reconciliation to congregations, justice organizations, and colleges. But she increasingly felt she could no longer trust in the God she’d been implicitly taught to worship—a white male God who preferentially empowered white men despite his claim to love all people. God Is a Black Woman is the chronicle of her liberating transformation and a critique of a society shaped by white patriarchal Christianity and culture.

La Cañada Congregational Church is proud to host this series of Black History Month Lectures each weekend of February, 2023. Tickets for each lecture are $25, and can be purchased on the church’s website, or you will receive a FREE TICKET with the purchase of a featured author/lecturer’s book from Flintridge Bookstore!
