Join musician, writer, and speaker Shelle Graves on a life-changing journey deep into the heart of what it means to be an African American person of faith in society today.
At a time when questions of race, justice, identity, and destiny are more important than ever, Graves offers the wisdom and insight she has gleaned from her own experiences with despondency, rejection, and racial struggle.
Incorporating a broad range of writing styles that span many different genres, the author speaks about issues such as slavery, the KKK, racial inequality, and African American home life-all the while weaving themes of faith and hope through each and every one of them.
This is a must-read for anyone who cares about finding answers to hard questions...and who seeks hope for personal redemption, cultural renewal, and social restoration. Deliver not only addresses psychological and social dimensions, but also provides sustenance for the heart and soul by offering readers a drink of living water from the fountain of life.
