This book was released on 2017 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I pursued doctoral studies in Congregational Growth and Community Development, at Drew Theological Seminary, to further discern God's vision for Mt. Zion African Methodist Episcopal Church of Plainfield, New Jersey. My research has shown me that since its founding in 1892, God's vision for our congregation remains intertwined with God's vision for Plainfield. My studies have also helped to see that given our denominational tradition, ensuring missional readiness will require recasting our approach to ministry-especially considering Plainfield's rich history, but challenging current socio-economic climate. As a pastor in our city for nearly twelve years, I have observed that residents today are bound to Plainfield's history. Perhaps the best example of this emerged in 1967, when racial tensions from the Newark riots spilled over to Plainfield, causing rapid changes. The city saw looting, rioting and demonstrations against police. These tensions were quelled in ten days, but the resulting stigma remains today. Many businesses and affluent residents moved to neighboring, better protected suburban communities. Plainfield rapidly became home to a decimated commercial environment and mostly low income residents. Efforts to revive Plainfield have been challenged by socio-economic inequity, low performing schools, gang violence and other depressive factors. However, as a diverse city of 49,500, Plainfield remains part of the vibrant New York City region. It is an inexpensive commuter hub, with quality bus and railway services, affordable housing, and has a growing spirit of revival. Given this environment, my professional project focused on seeking a new ministry approach to foster community missional goals, and Mt. Zion's readiness to pursue them. Our team discovered the need to engender ongoing spiritual growth for what I refer to as Great Commission missional readiness. Thus we conducted a Transformation Worship Event to share the framework we crafted and entitled: 'Our Personal Journey with Christ' (see Appendices D and E). Our scope included the Mt. Zion Church family, and we turned a typical worship service into a transformation teaching event. This framework, and its companion biblical foundation, grew out of our discovery over five work sessions that Mt. Zion's primary focus must be to ensure personal readiness to 'make disciplines' in our evolving community. And our subsequent focus must evolve into enhancing our ministry goals to extend Christian benevolence beyond Mt. Zion's walls, targeting emerging community needs.

This book was released on 2020-03-09 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1956, Rev. David S. Bradley Sr. wrote what was at the time and remains today the most thorough, scholarly history of the beginnings and growth of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church. Beginning with the birth of A. M. E. Zion Chapel in a humble chapel in New York City, Part 1 traces the growth of the church into a powerful and agile denomination, expanding from the settled coast into the frontiers of upstate New York and western Pennsylvania. The advancing denomination, with natural and inherited "antagonism to slavery," attracted "freedmen, seeking spiritual freedom," including the famous black Abolitionist activists—Sojourner Truth, Harriet Tubman, and Frederick Douglass, who learned and honed his rhetorical skills as an exhorter in the A. M. E. Zion congregation in New Bedford, Massachusetts, under Reverend Thomas James. "No road was too pioneering no thought too liberal, for these were freedmen, seeking spiritual freedom . . . All along the Mason Dixon Line, and further West, in Ohio and Indiana, Zion Churchmen became beacon points of hope to the escaped slave and A. M. E. Zion became the church of freedom."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A vast collection of documents that illuminate one of the most sophisticated acts of collective slave resistance in the history of the U.S. In 1822, thirty-four slaves and their leader, a free black man named Denmark Vesey, were tried and executed for "attempting to raise an insurrection" in Charleston, South Carolina. In The Denmark Vesey Affair, Douglas Egerton and Robert Paquette annotate and interpret a vast collection of contemporary documents that illuminate and contextualize this complicated saga, providing the definitive account of a landmark event that played a role in the nation’s path to Civil War. The editors ultimately argue that the Vesey plot was one of the most sophisticated acts of collective slave resistance in the history of the United States.
