About this listen

Part memoir, part social and theological commentary on what it means to be a Black Christian woman in the UK.

What does it mean when God is presented as male?

What does it mean when - from our internal assumptions to our shared cultural imaginings - God is presented as white?

These are the urgent questions Chine McDonald asks in a searing look at her experience of being a Black woman in the white-majority space that is the UK church - a church that is being abandoned by Black women no longer able to grin and bear its casual racism, colonialist narratives and lack of urgency on issues of racial justice.

A must-listen for anyone troubled by a culture that insists everyone is equal in God's sight, yet fails to confront white supremacy; a lament about the state of race and faith and a clarion call for us all to do better.

I bought this book as I know the author. However listening to this book felt so important once I had started. Thanks Chine for baring your heart and igniting mine. I can see the world around me more accurately and the perspective I have gained is applicable everywhere. This book holds value to those in secular spaces, not only Christian ones.

Important, confronting and necessary.
