Just because you’re not someone’s cup of tea doesn’t mean you aren’t a cup of tea. In this episode of VOICES’ Where Ya From? podcast, award-winning gospel singer Kierra Sheard-Kelly shares her journey from condemnation to body positivity, as well as her passion for spiritual self-care and living boldly in faith.

Notes & Quotes:

  • “Conviction points to the problem, but it gives you a solution. Condemnation only points to the problem and makes you go crazy.”
  • “The Lord wants you to have answers. He says, ‘Where you are weak, I am strong.’”
  • “I just want to say to be big, bold, and beautiful and owning the woman or the man that God has called you to be. It is simply you just resting in that liberty that heaven gives you, and that He authorizes you with.”
