We are all made in God’s image - the imago Dei - but many folks in western culture are taught, both implicitly and explicitly, that they are not. In her new book, A Brown Girl’s Epiphany, Rev. Aurelia Dávila Pratt shares her story of embracing her belovedness with a call to all of us to work towards healing. She names the harmful theological belief systems, particularly the ones rooted in white supremacy, and offers a more abundant, loving vision of what the world can be if we embrace the truth of who God created us all to be.
There is no better description of Rev. Aurelia’s voice and work than the one found on her website:
“By stepping out of harmful belief systems informed by white supremacy and scarcity, we can step into healthy paradigms of abundance, liberation, and power. A Brown Girl's Epiphany is a love letter to all of us in need of guidance on our journey. Honest, vulnerable, and humble, Pratt imagines a world where the walking wounded become the fully healed and liberated, where our inner work becomes the starting point for creating heaven on earth.”
