This week we will be beginning our new series Saints Who Were Sinners. This series will build on the tradition of All Saints' Day and we will be celebrating four saintly figures within the Christian tradition. Each of these figures were known for causing "good trouble," yet despite the justice oriented work they did they were often viewed with contempt by many within traditional church communities. This Sunday we will be exploring the work and legacy of Dr. Delores Williams, one of the foundational figures in the development of Womanist Theology. Through her rereading of the biblical figure Hagar, Williams shed light on the issues of reproductive justice, suffering, and surrogacy for Black women. How might centering the experience of Black women shift the way we view the story of Hagar, Sara, and Abraham?
