“If the only thing we have in common between us is the gospel, that is enough. If the word of God is the only heritage we share, that is sufficient. How liberating is that truth! This is what this book is about. I loved the way these precious women, from different nations and backgrounds, are faithfully and beautifully lifting up what will last and unite us forever: the word of God.” BETSY GOMEZ, Speaker; Blogger; Media Manager, Aviva Nuestros Corazones (Revive Our Hearts Hispanic Outreach)
“This collection of voices could not have come too soon. I need to hear the exhortation and exposition of the word of God from my sisters of color. Thank you, Kristie Anyabwile, for curating a beautiful and needful meditation on Psalm 119.” LAUREN CHANDLER, Songwriter; Worship Leader; Author, Steadfast Love and Goodbye to Goodbyes
“His Testimonies My Heritage is an edifying book. What the essayists in this collection have in common are two things: they are all women of color, and they all write out of deep and moving experience of joyfully coming under the authority of holy Scripture.” D.A. CARSON, President, The Gospel Coalition
“With meticulous attention to detail, God created a diverse human race. He took into account a vast array of variables to include race, gender, and culture. These differences are not to be ignored or dismissed when reading Scripture; they are to be acknowledged and celebrated. This book provides a lens through which we can view the experiences of Christian women of color as they engage with God. It beautifully captures and elevates narratives that are desperately needed for women of color and the entire body of Christ.” KIA STEPHENS, Founder, The Father Swap Blog
“Wow, this cast! Amazing women whom I respect deeply and voices which I long to hear and be edified by. In our sector of the vineyard, it’s rare to hear and accept edification from women because of the way our theological preferences have marginalized their voices! However, this book is a key place for the body of Christ (particularly men) to be bombarded by an entourage of women who love Jesus, are biblically sound, and are offering a vast reservoir of gospel gold! The great ethnic and experiential landscape within this book adds to the wealth that will come by engaging in this great work!” ERIC M. MASON, Lead Pastor, Epiphany Fellowship Church, Philadelphia, PA; Author, Woke Church
