Soul Wounding and Soul Healing D. Min Dr Sondra K. Gentry

Can your culture be at odds with yourself? Does your church support the true you or the cultured you? What is the definition of abuse automatically enacted by your acceptance of the abuse? Dr. Sondra Gentry has long been interested in the factors that push the decisions women make as African-Americans. Over five years of research, she has pulled together an understanding of the impact culture, gender and faith have upon decision making. The poignant revelations of her conversations with women are deeply moving, precisely indicating the commonality of pain, in the factors creating outer decisions at odds with inner turmoil. Out of the pain expressed, she has formed an avenue of healing. Dr. Gentry completed her Master of Divinity and her Doctor of Ministry in Pastoral Care and Counseling at Christian Theological Seminary. As an African-American widow, mother of three children and grandmother of eight children, she has served the church as an Associate Minister and as Senior Pastor.
