Sage Sisters
Essential Lessons for African American Women in Ministry
Description:... According to Hollies, what a woman learns in seminary does not adequately prepare her for a life of ministry. So she thoughtfully created some practical teaching tools for African American women in ministry by African American women in ministry. The tools are in the form of a collection of essays by sage female pastors, professors, heads of religious organizations, and other leaders who have been trailblazers in this male-dominated profession. These women represent a variety of denominations, including: African Methodist Episcopal Church, African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, Baptist Church, Christian Methodist Episcopal Church, Church of God, Lutheran Church USA, United Church of Christ, and United Methodist Church. The lessons, advice, and options offered will assist women in seminary and those who are new to ministry. They will learn from those sage sisters who have endured many challenges and trials and have forged the way for future generations of female clergy.
