Divine Divas, 2003

Abstract

I was at a conference a few years ago in Los Angeles where Kenneth Ulmer hosted a Reverend Sister Conference. Renita Weems, the advisor for my masters thesis, chose this text. Stating in her introduction that she was a Ph.D. and scholar and had traveled across the country preaching for some twenty years, she had never heard this text preached nor had she preached it. I sat there realizing that I, too, had been traveling around the country. I was telling women to accept their greatness, but I had never preached this text. Right there in worship, I found myself not only convicted, but spiritually indicted—guilty as charged. But, I have confessed my sins and this morning I want to preach this text and tag it with the title “Divine Divas.”
