Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The uniqueness of the black Baptist Church is without a doubt a blessing from God. Her many stories and journeys of faith are without a numerical counting that's tabulated. Yet God, in his infinite wisdom orchestrates the lives to bring glory to His name and a powerful testimony to their life's story. Such is the case in this "journey of faith." -Author If you need to be re-energized by the fact that even if the plantation is your location for a time in your life, it does not have to be your permanent home. You can move from a life of subjugation to one of total and complete liberation physically and spiritually under the Lord. Dr. Murphy leads the way. -Dr. William T. Perkins, Dean/President Morehouse School of Religion, ITC Atlanta, GA When I first observed the author during the days of his humble beginnings in Detroit struggling to obtain theological education through the Tennessee School of Religion, Detroit Extension, I saw an eagle harnessed by barnyard fowl, and try as he might, he could never be comfortable in the shadow of a bantam's dwellings. He would be an eagle trying to sit on a sparrow's nest. Paris L. Smith is now flying where God has summoned. -Dr. Allen B. Green, Pastor of the Second Baptist Church, Erie, PA This is one of the most powerful writings of this day because of the contents within shared from the writer. All that I am is rooted and grounded in the spiritual wisdom and strength of my hero and pastor. If ever there is a life that needs transcended to the pages, I believe that it is the life of Dr. William H. Murphy Sr. -Bishop William H. Murphy, Jr. Pastor of the New Mt. Moriah Missionary Baptist Church International, Pontiac, MI

Download or read book The Black Church in the African American Experience written by C. Eric Lincoln and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 1990-11-07 with total page 538 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Black churches in America have long been recognized as the most independent, stable, and dominant institutions in black communities. In The Black Church in the African American Experience, based on a ten-year study, is the largest nongovernmental study of urban and rural churches ever undertaken and the first major field study on the subject since the 1930s. Drawing on interviews with more than 1,800 black clergy in both urban and rural settings, combined with a comprehensive historical overview of seven mainline black denominations, C. Eric Lincoln and Lawrence H. Mamiya present an analysis of the Black Church as it relates to the history of African Americans and to contemporary black culture. In examining both the internal structure of the Church and the reactions of the Church to external, societal changes, the authors provide important insights into the Church’s relationship to politics, economics, women, youth, and music. Among other topics, Lincoln and Mamiya discuss the attitude of the clergy toward women pastors, the reaction of the Church to the civil rights movement, the attempts of the Church to involve young people, the impact of the black consciousness movement and Black Liberation Theology and clergy, and trends that will define the Black Church well into the next century. This study is complete with a comprehensive bibliography of literature on the black experience in religion. Funding for the ten-year survey was made possible by the Lilly Endowment and the Ford Foundation.

Download or read book Black Church Beginnings written by Henry H. Mitchell and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2004-10-04 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Black Church Beginnings provides an intimate look at the struggles of African Americans to establish spiritual communities in the harsh world of slavery in the American colonies. Written by one of today's foremost experts on African American religion, this book traces the growth of the black church from its start in the mid-1700s to the end of the nineteenth century.As Henry Mitchell shows, the first African American churches didn't just organize; they labored hard, long, and sacrificially to form a meaningful, independent faith. Mitchell insightfully takes readers inside this process of development. He candidly examines the challenge of finding adequately trained pastors for new local congregations, confrontations resulting from internal class structure in big city churches, and obstacles posed by emerging denominationalism.Original in its subject matter and singular in its analysis, Mitchell's Black Church Beginnings makes a major contribution to the study of American church history.
Download or read book Hearing History written by Mark Michael Smith and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hearing History is a long-needed introduction to the basic tenets of what is variously termed historical acoustemology, auditory culture, or aural history. Gathering twenty-one of the fields most important writings, this volume will deepen and broaden our understanding of changing perceptions of sound and hearing and the ongoing education of our senses. The essays stimulate thinking on key questions: What is aural history? Why has vision tended to triumph over hearing in historical accounts? How might we begin to reclaim the sounds of the past? With theoretical and practical essays on the history of sound and hearing in Europe and the United States, the book draws on historical approaches ranging from empiricism to postmodernism. Some essays show the historian of technology at work, others highlight how With theoretical and practical essays on the history of sound and hearing in Europe and the United States, the book draws on historical approaches ranging from empiricism to postmodernism. Some essays show the historian of technology at work, others highlight how military, social, intellectual, and cultural historians have tackled historical acoustemologies. Investigating soundscapes that include a Puritan meetinghouse in colonial New England, the belfries of a French village at the close of the Old Regime, the court hall of Elizabeth I, and a Civil War battlefield, the essays vary just as widely in their topics, which include noise as a marker of social and cultural differences, the privileging of music as the sound of art, the persistence of Aristotelian ideas of sound into the seventeenth century, developments in sound related to medical practice, the advent of sound-recording technology, and noise pollution.
Download or read book Preaching Creation written by John C. Holbert and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2012-01-06 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The human race, along with the animals and plants that make up the creation of God, face a difficult future due to the multiple ways that the ecosystem on which they all depend is currently under stress. Temperatures are rising along with the oceans. Rain forests are falling along with the polar ice caps. Questions of the environment are now front and center in any catalog of concerns. Those who are called to preach need to include in the subjects of their sermons these environmental issues. Our Bible contains significant resources, often overlooked, as bases on which powerful environmental sermons can be preached. This book introduces the subject of preaching and the environment, offering close looks at important biblical passages that address the cosmos of God, and presenting sample sermons founded on those passages. The book calls for preachers both to name the vast problems we face and to offer the hope of the gospel of God to address them.

It retells the story of the journey from the bottom of the slavers ships to the Church's pulpits, traversing the shifts in theological narratives informed by their experiences with both God and the men who had once held them captive. It retraces the steps of these "unique personalities," who found their function as the "healer of the sick, the interpreter of the unknown, the comforter of the sorrowing, the supernatural avenger of wrong, and the one who rudely but picturesquely expressed the longing, disappointment, and the resentment of a stolen and oppressed people." It tells the story of their phenomenal rise from the gutters of American history to participate in shaping its future...In all, it is His story...God's story.
