Hear the Spirit is a collection of unapologetically womanist, queer, Black, Christian, African, and radically inclusive celebrations of faith in God. These ritual poems and radical litanies are theopoetic reflections transformed into congregational experiences. Whether seeking affirmation, solace, strength, or a spark of rebellion, these words will resonate with readers' deepest self where holy meets the human condition. Raedorah Stewart hopes to inspire other congregations to adapt to suit regional culture and current events that frame the sacred and the profane, the personal and the political. Let the power of theopoetics transform your life and the world around you.
