Gibson's Bookstore is pleased to welcome Derry author Reverend Dr Deborah Roof, a queer Christian pastor, as she shares her experience, strength and hope and invites the reader to take their own spiritual journey with her book, Words, Wonder, and the Divine in You. Exemplifying her authentic gift of hospitality Roof shares the truth she has come to know: divinity dwells within each one of us. She finds God in the wonder of the created world and in the scriptures she has come to love.
As much as Roof loves a God-by-whatever-name-resonates-for-you, she also loves Christian scripture and works to find redemption even in the verses used as weapons. Roof invites us to take a close look at the words we use and the meaning we intend.
