MAMA'S PUTTING YOU UP ON GAME


Book Description

Mama's Putting You Up on Game! From uncomfortable topics like sex, drinking, and relationships, Grace Chang Piggue speaks to you straight-up as if you are one of her own daughters and brings up real-life trials she faced such as living as an immigrant to high school heartbreaks. Born in Toronto, Canada, yet raised in the City of Angels, she bluntly talks about her childhood to her high school graduation at Bellflower High School and how her core foundation kept her anchored in God. She keeps it one hundred and puts herself out there as she is continuously learning to be a parent through her faith and obedience in Jesus Christ. She wrote this memoir especially for her daughters to put them "up on game," which in turn became a healing movement and turned her testimony into His ministry.

Praise Jerusalem!


Book Description

Fans of southern novels that explore the complex relationships between white families and their black hired help will find a compelling story about race relations in PRAISE JERUSALEM. Amelia, an aging Georgia matron forced by money woes to move in with two other women--outlandishly preachy Maybelline and take-no-nonsense Mamie, who is black--begins to confront her childhood memories of the black women who worked for her family. Their lives, both tragic and yet sublimely proud, haunt Amelia even now, as she searches for a way to make peace with the sorrows she innocently observed. PRAISE JERUSALEM is a rare mix of poignant drama but also wry humor. Both the elder Amelia and her childhood self are primly rebellious and irrepressible; Amelia's sharp eye for petty human foibles never fails her.
