Overview

There's a blessing with your name on it somewhere in these pages. In a time when our existence is being legislated against and silence is weaponized as safety, GlitterBlessed offers Queer and Trans people sacred words that refuse to acknowledge we are anything but already whole, already holy. This isn't a book of generic affirmations. These are blessings written by queer and trans people, for queer and trans people-fierce, tender, defiant words for the moments that call for them. You'll find sacred language for: Bodies that are holy places of change-scars, surgeries, hormones, and all the ways we become more ourselves Breaking points when everything feels unbearable and you need someone to hold the weight with you Celebrations of gender euphoria, coming out after 40, daily PrEP as rebellion, and every threshold of queer becoming Quiet moments when tenderness is everything-for hookups that leave you whole, for the ones still figuring it out The fight ahead-because our ancestors knew that silence equals death, and love means showing up even when we're past hope Organized into six powerful sections, this collection serves as your treasure map. Scan the table of contents and find exactly what your heart needs most: courage for the scared, defiance for the defeated, tenderness for the wounded, celebration for the places shame still lives. Reminding us what our ancestors knew: We were never trespassers here. We belonged from our first breath.

Reviews

""Reading GlitterBlessed felt like being reminded that queerness itself is holy ground. As a queer pastor and writer working at the intersection of faith and justice, I can say this collection doesn't just bless: it affirms, disrupts, and heals all at once.""- Rev. Brandan Robertson, Author, 'Queer and Christian: Reclaiming the Bible, Our Faith, and Our Place At The Table ""As I read GlitterBlessed I felt my shoulders relax and tension ease out of my body. Each piece invites us into ways of holding and loving. The Queer community, with all the identities encompassed within, is sacred and by centering the love that has always existed among people who have had to hide who they are for far too long, this book will help you love loudly and boldy. If you are not part of the Queer community, you are invited to learn how to support those you love and you will be moved by each of these blessings that sparkle and warm your soul."" -Aisha Hauser, MSW CRE ML ""A blessing is connection. It says: I see you. Your gifts, the work you've put in, the weight you carry, the joy you emanate, the grief you tend, the vital energy of your existence. Being seen is magic. GlitterBlessed is filled with blessings from & for those who move through life queerly. Words to help you, feel seen, feel protected by a community that will never leave you behind, and manifest whatever transformation your queer life has in store for you. Go forth and shimmer, baby."" - Flamy Grant, Award-winning and Billboard-charting singing-songwriting drag queen. ""GlitterBlessed is spiritual nourishment for resisting those who would erase our holy love. ""You Are Queer Enough"" and ""Blessing for the ones still figuring it out"" remind me that queer resilience and joy are sacred weapons. These blessings fortify the soul for the struggle and kindle hope that cannot be legislated away."" - Rev. Tandi Rogers, Director of Spiritual Direction Formation & Certification, Meadville Lombard Theological School ""More and more, in these dire days when hate is both shouted and legislated without any remorse, we need books like this. I am looking forward to passing this volume on, especially to the trans and nonbinary beloveds in my congregation and their families so it can serve as a lifeline, a fortification, as a shield against all that is aligned against them and all that seeks to tell them they are not part of how the Creator intended the world to be. This will be a deep well of healing."" - Rev. Dr. Kelly Colwell, Senior Minister of First Congregational Church of Berkeley, UCC
