The Church — Faux Silk Kaftan

The historian Origen — writing in the 3rd century AD — described the Church, the Bride of Christ, as a Black Ethiopian woman. This is not revisionism. It is the original text.

Drawing from the Song of Solomon, one of Christianity’s earliest and most influential theologians placed a Black woman at the very center of the faith’s identity. She was not peripheral. She was the Church itself. This kaftan honors that truth — that at the foundation of one of the world’s great spiritual traditions, she was there. Black. Present. Central.
