Join one woman on a spiritual journey in, around, and through the church on her way to a deeper connection to Jesus... Andrea Syverson was raised Catholic. As in really Catholic, from plaid jumpers to early-morning Mass to meatless Fridays. And then she did the unthinkable. She fell in love with a non-Catholic man whose questions about her faith she simply couldn't answer. What's a good Catholic girl to do? Frequently whimsical, often profound, always honest, Andrea shares her spiritual journey—one that feels familiar to anyone seeking Jesus. It's a jumbled jaunt from religion to relationship, from going to church to being the church. Whether you love church or are done with it, or you're simply seeking a more authentic relationship with Jesus—Andrea has something to say to you. You’ll enjoy... • A compelling story of Jesus’ relentless pursuit of those who desire to know him. • An upbeat, honest glimpse at how church does—or doesn’t—welcome those who come seeking answers. • Reflective devotions and journaling space at the end that draw you deeper toward your heart of faith. • Inspiration that you, too, can find your way to a deeper, more transforming relationship with Jesus.

Stroll through any public park in Brooklyn on a weekday afternoon and you will see black women with white children at every turn. Many of these women are of Caribbean descent, and they have long been a crucial component of New York's economy, providing childcare for white middle- and upper-middleclass families. Raising Brooklyn offers an in-depth look at the daily lives of these childcare providers, examining the important roles they play in the families whose children they help to raise. Tamara Mose Brown spent three years immersed in these Brooklyn communities: in public parks, public libraries, and living as a fellow resident among their employers, and her intimate tour of the public spaces of gentrified Brooklyn deepens our understanding of how these women use their collective lives to combat the isolation felt during the workday as a domestic worker. Though at first glance these childcare providers appear isolated and exploited—and this is the case for many—Mose Brown shows that their daily interactions in the social spaces they create allow their collective lives and cultural identities to flourish. Raising Brooklyn demonstrates how these daily interactions form a continuous expression of cultural preservation as a weapon against difficult working conditions, examining how this process unfolds through the use of cell phones, food sharing, and informal economic systems. Ultimately, Raising Brooklyn places the organization of domestic workers within the framework of a social justice movement, creating a dialogue between workers who don't believe their exploitative work conditions will change and an organization whose members believe change can come about through public displays of solidarity.
