The Secret Life of a Teenage Christian is a collection of poetry that embodies the idea of what it means to beBlack.Christian. And a Teenage.All coexisting at the same time.Each poem carefully illustrates the melancholic unexpectedness that naturally links itself to black Christians,an obliterated group of individuals who are forced, at birth, to create a sense of identity where God is expected to be the center.This is the paradigm we generally grew up with.And these are our stories.
