In We Have Plenty, Lorena Parrish traces the history of theologies of prosperity, the ways such theologies appear in the Black church, and the unique harms for Black women and communities. Parrish then offers a womanist way forward, a moral imagination for just social relations, Jesus-centered economic ethics, and Black communal thriving.
