Sojourner Truth Community We believe that whoever you are & wherever you are on life's journey, you are welcomed and loved here! Sojourner Truth Community is the dream of Pamela Y.

Cook for a new kind of faith community. It is a progressive, Africnetric, open and affirming, radically inclusive, peace and justice, antiracist faith community. It is a community of extravagant welcome and radical inclusion with love at the center of all we do. We intentionally welcome all persons regardless of race, color, ancestry, age, gender, gender expression, affectional orientation, ability, or social class. We celebrate the Creator's diversity! Culturally, it is an African-centered congregation. We constantly affirm our trust in God through cultural expression of an African American worship service with prayer, preaching and song from the Baptist, Methodist and Pentecostal traditions and ministries which address the Black community--- housing, employment, cooperative economics, food, healthcare, transportation, asset building, antiracism, education, and the environment among others. Our theology is progressive with elements of black liberation, womanist, and ubuntu theologies. While we are Christ-centered, we encourage questions and do not have a litmus test for belonging. Our hope is to be affiliated with the United Church of Christ (ucc.org), the Fellowship of Affirming Ministries (http://www.radicallyinclusive.com/), and the Alliance of Baptists (http://www.allianceofbaptists.org/).

What happens when our God-talk becomes too certain?

Join Louisville Seminary for the 2026 Katie Geneva Cannon Womanist Lecture, featuring theologian and scholar Rev. Dr. Keri Day.

Resisting the Domestication of God-Talk: Towards a Black Feminist Apophatic Mysticism

Drawing on Black feminist and womanist thought, Dr. Day will explore how Black feminist apophatic mysticism challenges theological certainty and invites us to imagine and speak about God in more expansive, ethical, and Spirit-filled ways.

Centering the life and witness of Sojourner Truth, the lecture will consider Black mystical traditions that resist attempts to define or contain God while reckoning with the theological legacies of U.S. slavery.

Dr. Day is the Elmer G. Homrighausen Chair and Professor of Constructive Theology and African American Religion at Princeton Theological Seminary. In 2023, she became the first African American woman promoted to full professor in Princeton Theological Seminary history.
Come explore what becomes possible when our theology makes room for mystery, wonder, and a God who cannot be contained.
