This book is comprised of various safe spaces through theological virtues for those of us on this Christian journey. The term safe space is often used with social justice and free speech. Safe space refers to “a place or environment in which a person or category of people can feel confident that they will not be exposed to discrimination, criticism, harassment, or any other emotional or physical harm.”

This book also includes personal stories and biblical stories created as theological virtues built on safe spaces that were created by GOD for our life’s journey. Each chapter in the book includes a narrative (personal and biblical stories), scriptures, and prayers relative to each safe space.

In the years it took me to write this book, I’ve experienced some unbelievable challenges and barriers that took concentrated practice, reading, and prayer to develop safe spaces. In fact, I’ve had some pains in my life that took years to heal, and it’s only by understanding the theological virtues of being a Christian that enabled me to walk through this journey without losing my mind, becoming an alcoholic or drug addict, or even just giving up on life. These life experiences are the foundation for the theological virtues presented in this book as safe spaces. However, finding my safe space grounded in theological virtues enabled me to endure heartbreak, engage in new endeavors, and embrace life’s journey. I pray that you receive the same freedom in finding your safe space.
