Joseph Palmore Analysis
The son of a Houston pastor who was shot in the head while sitting by a beauty salon window says his mother was spared by God.

    Patria has always trusted God and His plan, but that changes when she loses her second son. Prior to this loss, “Jesus had not taken anything away from [her]” (53). According to Patria, this loss shows God has betrayed her; He took her son. She begins to question her faith and God, and she even starts “challenging Him” because of it (53).

That vacancy left her with doubts and…
