Religious Experience And Journal Of Jarena Lee is a book written by Jarena Lee in 1849. The book provides an account of Lee's personal religious experiences and her call to preach the gospel. Lee was an African American woman who lived during the 19th century, a time when women and people of color were not allowed to preach in most churches. Despite the obstacles she faced, Lee felt a strong calling from God to share the message of the gospel with others. The book is divided into two parts. The first part, Religious Experience, describes Lee's spiritual journey and her encounters with God. She shares her struggles with sin, her doubts and fears, and her eventual conversion to Christianity. Lee's experiences are deeply personal and provide a unique insight into the spiritual life of an African American woman during this time period.The second part of the book, Journal, is a record of Lee's travels and preaching experiences. She traveled throughout the United States, preaching to both black and white audiences. Lee faced many challenges as a female preacher, including opposition from some church leaders and discrimination from society at large. Despite these obstacles, Lee remained committed to her calling and continued to preach the gospel for many years.Overall, Religious Experience And Journal Of Jarena Lee is a powerful testimony to the strength and perseverance of a woman who felt called by God to preach the gospel. Lee's experiences offer a unique perspective on the role of women and people of color in the church during the 19th century, and her story continues to inspire and challenge readers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
