The Water and the Blood, the Blood and the Water

Rather than a midlife crisis, Fulbright's memoir is a midlife reckoning with identity through the lenses of faith, gender, and race. Guided by a relentless pursuit of the truth, the author traces the trajectory of her colorful, occasionally chaotic, and at times arresting journey from Southern Baptist missionary kid in Zambia to queer feminist preacher in the American South.

With honesty, courage, clarity, and hope, she weaves together her own history of trauma with theological reflections about the nature of God, healing, and liberation. It's a story of breaking silences and breaking cycles.
