God's Divine Wellness Plan Fredina Usher-Weems

The recognition that God has a divine wellness plan for His children, especially for His African-American daughters, became the motivation for the doctoral work of Fredina Usher-Weems. Based upon the biblical foundations of Proverbs 31 and Colossians 3, she has drawn together historical research on the health and wellness of African-American women, and theological and contemporary writings on the body, soul and spirit within these pages. Through her research project, which connected these themes in a six week experience for women, she was able to impact the health and wellness of the participants in positive ways.
