Reimagine a deeper story of Hagar’s life. Reckon with the important ways she is first in the Genesis narrative.
As a slave, she is the first oppressed woman in the Bible
She is the first woman to experience use, abuse & rejection in the text
Hagar is the first female in scripture to liberate herself from oppressive power structures
She is the first person to receive a visit from a divine messenger.
She is the only woman to receive a direct promise of many descendants.
She is the first person to give God a name.
She is the first freed slave
How we understand her story sets the trajectory for seeing every woman in the Bible. Her story matters.
Check out my website for more information on book groups beginning in May and a course beginning in October!
Growing Around Mother Hunger
In her piercing memoir Know My Name, Chanel Miller describes healing as growing around…
“Most people say developing is linear, but for survivors it is cyclic. People grow up, victims grow around; we strengthen around the places that hurt, becoming older and fuller, but the vulnerable core is never gone.”
In August, I’ll be launching a new community of women exploring the book Mother Hunger by Kelly McDaniel. This is a way to understand how we have growth strength around the vulnerable core of our unmothered childhoods as we are cared for and understood by those on a similar journey.
