"Can a Sistah Get a Little Help? Encouragement for Black Women in Ministry" focuses on how Black women can faithfully continue to navigate the internal and external challenges of ministry. Drawing from experiences throughout her twenty-two years in ordained ministry and as a seminary professor, Teresa L. Fry Brown asserts she has learned that with a set of cultural coping mechanisms and values, African American women can not only survive but thrive as leaders and mentors in spite of the brick ceiling. These coping mechanisms and values include survival skills; network and support systems; a work ethic; mentors and sponsors; a sense of self-worth and self-confidence; spiritual values; a balance in life; a leadership style; and acultural identity. In preparation for the book, Brown spoke with approximately 200 ordained and 450 laywomen in ministry about the issues most relevant to them. Here, in the form of remembrances, vignettes, and discussions, and interwoven with common concerns raised by these women, she shares the lessons learned and to be learned during a journey to self-empowerment in ministry.

Journey to Self: Journey to Love is a collection of personal poems, thoughts, and blog entries from my journey through love. In searching for love, I've continued to make a full circle back to myself and my Creator. Some of the stories are sad and some funny, but all are worth sharing. It is my hope that lives will be touched and changed by seeing the authenticity of my experiences and perceptions. I'm not afraid of the truth; it is what sets me free During my short 30 years of life, I've experienced so much about love and relationships. I trust that we all have experienced our fair share. What if your experiences and being healed from the lessons learned are a part of your assignment from God? Now who signs up for heartache and pain? Not one of us. If these experiences can be used to help a younger generation or to help heal another, I'm ready to share. What I've learned about love is that it is a journey just like life! Sure it hasn't all been roses and it hasn't all been heartache, but it has been a road that has led me back to my first love; God, my Creator. This is the refreshing part of the journey. This is the part of the journey where all of Heaven and the Angels rejoice in knowing that we have remembered the One who first loved us. There is no greater love. So I say that, love is a journey where you go searching and ultimately find yourself. You find the God that is within and the God who created you. You remember what you were born to do! Thank you for taking the time out to travel this journey with me!
