Short Stories: Hymns, Heels & Holy Shade: Church Mother's Wig & Wisdom (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798292122449)

Step into the front pew and clutch your pearls because the Church Mothers are about to speak, and they do not come to play.
In this spirited collection of stories, sass, and sanctified side-eye, Hymns, Heels & Holy Shade invites readers into the world of the Black church matriarch: a woman of fierce faith, flawless fashion, and a tongue sharp enough to slice sin at the root. From the mystery of the flying wig during praise break to the sacred art of throwing shade with scripture, this book is a love letter to the women who built the pews, raised the choirs, and kept the congregation in line with a fan in one hand and a peppermint in the other.
Told through a blend of short stories, fictional testimonies, and divine humor, this book captures the wisdom, wit, and war stories of the women who've seen it all and still show up every Sunday in heels higher than the church budget. Whether they're rebuking gossip, mentoring young women, or reminding the pastor who really runs the church, these mothers serve truth with a side of cornbread and conviction.
Perfect for fans of church culture, southern storytelling, and anyone who knows the power of a well-placed "Bless your heart," this book is a celebration of legacy, laughter, and the holy shade that only a Church Mother can throw.
