God, A Lesbian and the Space in Between

Nicole’s journey, I’m sure, is no different from your own. Nicole was raised in church all her life. From the time she could remember anything, everything she knew was connected to church. Nicole had been given a miracle at an early age and that miracle would affect her perception of God while learning and growing into who she was.

At a young age Nicole gravitated towards the delight of God in all things. However, when she left home for college her world was turned upside down. This is a story about an black church girl whose experiences in life’s lessons produced dense gratitude. Her sheltered existence as a preachers kid, also, created depth in those experiences.

How did that level of intimacy translate in her adult life as a Lesbian?
