Parable of the Brown Girl Quotes Showing 1-1 of 1
“God created the bodies of black girls as a marvelous work, and God inhabits the bodies of black girls through the Holy Spirit. God loves black girls so much that the spirit of God chooses to dwell within them, as the Spirit does with us all. I asked a ten-year-old girl what she would think if she heard, “the Spirit of the living God lives in your body,” without tacking on a purity message at the end of it. “That would mean I could do anything,” she replied.”
