The Dear God Collection Book Signing & Talk-Back (SLC, UT)
Join Dr. Sherrá Watkins on Saturday, October 24, 2026, from 1:00–3:00 p.m. at the Black Cultural Center on the University of Utah campus in Salt Lake City for an intimate book signing and sacred conversation celebrating The Dear God Collection.
Some prayers do not begin with answers. They begin with the courage to say what is true.
Through memoir, guided reflection, and the stories of women in Scripture, The Dear God Collection creates space for hard questions, honest conversations, and a faith rooted in relationship—not performance.
The afternoon will feature an author conversation with Dr. Watkins followed by a talk-back and audience Q&A led by Rev. Cindy Solomon-Kleba and Rev. Denise Jeffrey-Elbert. Together, they will explore the collection’s central themes, including spiritual awakening, developing a spiritual identity, expanding our language for God, recognizing spiritual bypassing, and creating an authentic spiritual life.
