Book Giveaway – Pricelis Perreaux-Dominguez – Being a Sanctuary [5 Winners]

Being a SanctuaryWe’re excited to run a giveaway of FIVE copies of this newly released book:

Being a Sanctuary: The Radical Way for the Body of Christ to Be Sacred, Soft, and Safe
Eliza Griswold

(Paperback: Brazos Press, 2024)

Book Description:
“Perreaux-Dominguez constructs a solid model of church reform. . . . This inspires.”–Publishers Weekly

What does it mean to be the Body of Christ in a healthy and holy way?

When news outlets reveal church scandals or we hear stories about people leaving the church, it can seem as though we are in a bit of a crisis as the Body of Christ. In Being a Sanctuary, Pricelis Perreaux-Dominguez–who has experienced abuse, trauma, and racism within the church–takes us on an honest, biblical, and reflective journey as she examines the state of the church and offers us a hopeful path forward.

Perreaux-Dominguez focuses on three aspects of God’s vision for the church: that it would be sacred (Bible based), soft (trauma informed), and safe (justice centered). Each section of the book explores what these mean for the church using biblical teaching, practical instruction, and stories from her own experiences. She unpacks practical steps the body of Christ can take to realize this vision and cultivate a lifestyle of being a sanctuary, including repenting, pursuing sanctification, showing Christ’s compassion, healing injustices, choosing unity over uniformity, and being advocates.

This book is for anyone ready to be both challenged and encouraged on how we, as the Body of Christ, can collectively return to God’s foundational call to be radicals who choose the path of being sacred, soft, and safe–just like Jesus is.
