LGBTQ+ people are under constant attack, especially by those who claim the mantle of Christ. It’s not popular or easy to be a Christian and a member of our marginalized community. On the right we have conservatives that claim to speak for God who try to block our path. On the left we have those who have been harmed by the church and balk at our continued belief. We are left in the middle to try to reconcile a religion that appears to demonizes us and a God who loves us unconditionally.
Jeza’s Jesus Juice is a rare safe space for those who are committed to their faith but do not know where to go to deepen it. It is also a place for those searching for meaning in Christianity that does not negate their queer identity. This devotional provides personal stories, biblical apologetics, and damning indictments of today’s evangelical movement, all served up frothy over ice by one of America’s premier and unique drag talents.

"Utterly engaging, and I was gripped from start to finish..."
Q Spirit
"Drag-queen humor and strong Christian faith blend harmoniously in this distinctive devotional for LGBTQIA+ people and allies."
Medium
“Jeza's Jesus Juice might very well be just the tonic both recovering LGBTQ Christians (and the Churches that have pushed them away) need right now.”
Robert Paul Reyes: Politics, Religion & More
"Jeza Belle is the antithesis of the biblical Jezebel, she is spreading the good news of God's love for all of his children, be they white or black or gay or straight.”
QueerForty (UK)
“Far from being exclusive to certain demographics, Jeza Belle believes that divine guidance is for all souls worldwide, and her book serves as a vessel to reconnect us with the universal love and peace that knows no boundaries.”
