Today, on Written Voices Podcast author, Rachel Pat G’Orge-Walker, shares an excerpt from her latest book release, Somebody’s Sinning in My Bed.
Pat G’Orge (pronounced Gee-or-jay) – Walker is in a league of her own. This accomplished Christian author and comedienne has an amazing mind and talent for turning her observations of church and black church life, in particular, into gems of sidesplitting humor. It is her own special gift from God that enables G’Orge-Walker to depict the often ridiculous antics of church folk. She does it without subverting the Good News or watering down the potency of its message.
