From Black Church to White Jesus
The speaker discusses their journey from growing up in a black church to experiencing the overwhelming scenes and pressure of a white evangelical play that featured 'white Jesus'. They contrast the emphasis on black history and suffering in their childhood church with the adoration and worship based on God's holiness in the white evangelical perspective. The chapter also explores their personal experiences with the concept of hell and salvation, as well as their eventual rejection of 'white Jesus' and the process of deconstructing their faith.
