Subject(s): Summary: "Step into a journey toward liberation, belonging, and a faith that fits your skin. We need belonging to survive and thrive. For Christians in marginalized communities who know the pain, isolation, and loss of identity that come with the ongoing struggle to be seen in churches and institutions full of barriers to belonging, it can feel easier to walk away from faith completely.

In this hope-filled book, author Rohadi Nagassar brings the margins to the center to help readers rediscover a reality of love, belonging, and beauty through the journey of deconstructing, decolonizing, and reclaiming faith. For anyone who has struggled to find belonging, for everyone who wants to join in building radically inclusive communities where all people can live fully in their own skin-now begins a journey to find this freedom"-- Provided by publisher.Summary: "Step into a journey toward liberation, belonging, and a faith that makes you whole again.We need belonging to survive and thrive.

We need belonging to survive and thrive, but too often the church is an impediment. For Christians who know the pain, isolation, and loss of identity that comes with the ongoing struggle to be seen in churches and institutions full of barriers to belonging, you are not alone. Sometimes it can feel easier to walk away from faith completely. But there is another way. When it feels as though there's no place left to belong, Jesus invites us into a love that knows no bounds and a community that truly liberates.

In this hope-filled book, author Rohadi Nagassar brings the margins to the center to help readers rediscover a reality of love, belonging, and beauty through the journey of deconstructing, decolonizing, and reclaiming faith. For those on the margins struggling to find belonging, for everyone who wants to join in building radically inclusive communities where all people can live fully in their own skin--now begins a journey to find this freedom.
