CGiii Comment

The love of God comes at no cost to those who seek him with a humble, open heart. Religion teaches this, but not every church teaches the same unconditional love God is supposed to represent. Tamar has been called to become a minister, and for most, this would be an honorable moment, but for Tamar, it is the worst thing that could have happened. Tamar is the middle lesbian daughter of Deacon Jessup “Jessie” Arthur, and Evangelist Allison Arthur. Tamar has been taught that her desires are not that of God, so she has suppressed them for the last 16 years and has never dated a woman despite it being what she truly wants. It’s only when she meets Pastor Monica Smith that things are put into perspective, and she can return to the church with a new mindset, space, and objective: to teach love and understanding through her own faith walk.
