Believe it it not some people don’t know about #PreachEb. You have been following my journey to create more content and conversation around the idea of considering #HipHip lyrics sacred text. The idea that we can find #wisdom from these lyrics and in this #culture. Even when it’s problematic. Even when it’s verrry problematic. The fact of the matter is - a #hiphopwomanist can’t have a whole socio political, #theological or #ethical conversation about who is #worthy and what is #holy without the language of HipHop. Period. It’s not possible. A #Womanist refused to trouble the contemporary culture and not the problematic faces form the #Bible (or whatever sacred text is being lifted). We not gonna drag #JayZ and his relationship with his wife if we not dragging Father #Abraham and the way he gave his whole wife away to save himself. We not calling out #LilWayne and the way he raises his daughter if we not gonna address the fact that Tamar’s rape was secondary discussion behind the fact that David was grieving for his son. We just not going to do it. We will trouble both. That is what we will do. || A few weeks ago on a @blackgirlmixtape LIVE @raising_ratchet_royalty said that when we consider the interpretation of he text we gotta ask, “Who does it benefit for us to believe it this way?” Mannnnnnnnn that changed my whole preachment. Like... I can’t even live the same after that! To that I ask... who does it benefit for us to exclude hip hop from the discussion about what is worthy and holy? || You can Click the PreachEb hashtag and scroll for days finding #HipHopBibleStudy excerpts from all your faves. My goal is that you will begin to listen to music and not just skim through it. There’s a blessing in it all of you’ll be available for it. If the rock can cry out... why can’t #21Savage 🤷🏾‍♀️ #BibleStudyWithTheBible

#BibleStudyWithTheBible <- Click That . . . What’s up? Isyagirrrrlll #PreacherBae <- Nobody calls me that! Lol! Hey! It’s a new #PreachEb. Not a series but part of a series that already exists so Click That Link. . . . The reason #heaven and “Where is #God is so important to me is because a near God feels so much more powerful than a far away God. And I know I can contemplate a near God because #Emmanuel means “God with us.” So how can God Be Emmanuel but somewhere far away in the sky? THIS MATTERS! A very present help in the time of trouble! . . . You going through something today. Sit with this reality. That God is near to the broken hearted and saves those who have a crushed spirit. <- Thats #Bible. || Reach our and touch God in you. #Heaven in you. Help is here! #Amen. . . . #HioHopWomanism #HipHopWomanist #Womanism #Womanist #Liberation #Theology
