Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Overcoming Church Conflict: Confessions of a Church Girl by Vanessa M. Cavett “Conflict tests your ability to endure the race,” says Vanessa M. Cavett in her book Overcoming Church Conflict: Confessions of a Church Girl. The book opens by delving into the history of the Black church in the United States and explores the role of Christianity. She reveals her own history as a Christian while giving testimony of her journey with Christ. Along the way, Cavett encounters the disruptive nature of envy within the church and details dramatic power struggles with deacons, missionaries, and even knife-wielding organists. Cavett keeps readers engaged as she tells the tale of her journey to find the right church that meets her spiritual needs. The book’s theme is overcoming adversity in the church, which is not where most people expect to find it. People look for love and acceptance in the church, but often find conflict. As a result, younger generations today are turning away from the church because it is not perfect and they face rejection. But Jesus said, “It is impossible but that offences will come,” and the church is no exception. Cavett explains that nothing in the earth realm is perfect, but encourages Christians to be fighters and overcome obstacles with the power of God. Cavett experienced church conflict and overcame it by God’s power, becoming a stronger Christian as a result. She encourages readers to understand there is a spiritual and a natural church. The first represents the body of Christ made of believers worldwide and the latter is the place believers gather to encourage each other and worship together. Jesus established the church; therefore, believers must not let the enemy cause them to abandon it because of evil forces placed there to distract them. Believers must remember the higher call of advancing God’s kingdom on earth. And they must be obedient to His word, which instructs them to assemble together in church and work to make it a place where Jesus Christ is exalted and His power is manifest. Cavett recommends this book to all pastors and youth leaders to distribute among youth and use as part of study groups. Overcoming Church Conflict centers around millennials, but is for all Christians, young and old, and especially for those who question the church’s purpose or relevance today. The book is a relatable, witty tale of worship, fellowship, and following God’s call.

Book excerpt: Like so many other children who grew up in church, Leesa McFall learned from a tender age that sex outside of marriage was a sin. She knew it was something she should not do. As a church girl spending most of her time in church or at church activities, Leesa learned how to serve her church community well. She also learned how to mimic how the typical church girl should speak, walk, and look. She was also always reminded of the importance of remaining a virgin until marriage. However, after a traumatic life experience that brought about severe emotional trauma, Leesa quickly found herself in a state of promiscuity. Not long after, daughter of a preacher and a Sunday School teacher, praise and worship leader and praise dancer found herself pregnant and unmarried at age eighteen. As she grappled through life, navigating the shame and disgrace that was placed upon her, her emotional state deteriorated. She found herself in and out of toxic relationships for much of her teen and adult life. When she had finally learned to manage her life and suppress her emotions, she found herself pregnant, unmarried, depressed and suicidal again in her mid-twenties. This time, she learned to look for God in the midst of her mess. And she sought the Lord, He made Himself known and embraced her with His love, grace and strength. Leesa's encounter with the grace and mercy of a perfect God saved her life and is the foundation on which she now stands. In this memoir, Leesa discusses how the love of Jesus Christ turned her life around and gave her the hope she needed to begin a new life.
