Review
“This book is an important, long over-due, practical course of treatment for white Christians who understand that racism did not end with the 2008 presidential election. With great sensitivity and pastoral skill, Teel guides us through the work of key womanist ‘mentors’ toward a more whole (and more Christian) reality of human bodies as the image of God – a reality that must be enacted as well as acknowledged. Her honesty is inspiring, her confidence in us irresistible.”–Laurel C. Schneider, Professor of Theology, Ethics, and Culture, Chicago Theological Seminary and author of Re-Imagining the Divine: Confronting the Backlash against Feminist Theology and Beyond Monotheism: A Theology of Multiplicity
