Download or read book The Gold Coast Church and the Ghetto written by James K. Wellman and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "One of the nation's best known churches, Fourth Presbyterian is a thriving mainline church housed in an elegant Gothic building in Chicago's wealthy Gold Coast neighborhood. Less than a mile to the west is another world: the Cabrini-Green low- income housing projects. In this evenhanded account, James Wellman surveys the church's history of balancing its theological aims and its social boundaries and sheds light on the strengths and weaknesses of liberal Protestantism as a modern religious institution. Wellman shows how Fourth Presbyterian has moved from an establishment congregation to what he calls a lay liberal church working to overcome class and race inequality in its urban context while carving out its institutional identity in an increasingly pluralistic environment. By examining the church's four main leaders over the course of the century, Wellman tracks Fourth Presbyterian's gradual shift away from an evangelical role and toward the current focus on service, epitomized in the church's main outreach program, an extensive volunteer tutoring program that serves hundreds of Cabrini-Green residents each week. In documenting Fourth Presbyterian's struggle to meet the needs of its privileged congregants while challenging them to move beyond exclusive boundaries of race and class, The Gold Coast Church and the Ghetto opens a window into the past, present, and future of the Protestant mainline."

Download or read book The Very Good Gospel written by Lisa Sharon Harper and published by WaterBrook. This book was released on 2016-06-07 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God once declared everything in the world “very good.” Can you imagine it? A Vision of Hope for a Broken World Shalom is what God declared. Shalom is what the Kingdom of God looks like. Shalom is when all people have enough. It’s when families are healed. It’s when churches, schools, and public policies protect human dignity. Shalom is when the image of God is recognized in every single human. Shalom is our calling as followers of Jesus’s gospel. It is the vision God set forth in the Garden and the restoration God desires for every relationship. What can we do to bring shalom to our nations, our communities, and our souls? Through a careful exploration of biblical text, particularly the first three chapters of Genesis, Lisa Sharon Harper shows us what “very good” can look like today, even after the Fall. Because despite our anxious minds, despite division and threats of violence, God’s vision remains: Wholeness for a hurting world. Peace for a fearful soul. Shalom.

Download or read book The Ghetto the Garden and the Gospel written by Joe Ader and published by . This book was released on 2018-05 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this fresh and biblical look at poverty in America, Joe Ader confronts us with a basic question: How did mankind start out in a garden that was perfect in every way and end up in the worldwide ghetto that we know as poverty? And how do we find our way out? To answer this question (and many more) the author takes us on a personal journey of discovery, introducing us to the residents of Middle Classburg, America and Povertyville, USA (which town do you call home?). Along the way, he challenges us to see poverty differently as he explains:¿How President Lyndon Johnson committed America to a War on Poverty at a time the United States Government had never defined "poverty"¿How an obscure government analyst named Mollie Orshansky became "The Mother Of Poverty" in America¿Why currently accepted definitions and explanations of poverty are fatally flawed¿Why poverty is about more than our economic status; it's about our relationship with God¿How the gospel brings us all out of the spiritual ghetto we all share while transforming our understanding of poverty and how to fight it¿How Jesus didn't come to make poor people into middle class people, but to make all people God's people¿How "The Iron Rule" needs to work alongside "The Golden Rule"¿How a handful of practical tools can help pastors, Christian workers and all of us better serve those struggling in the grip of generational poverty¿And these are just a few of the reasons why every Christian in America needs to read this book.
Download or read book The Real Ghetto Gospel written by Devan Meighan and published by . This book was released on 2020-01-23 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Real Ghetto Gospel is not a down play of Tupac or any other thug out there but it is a Gospel according to someone that has lived a life where God has truly shown Himself to be real in the midst of a destructive situation. Just like any of the other four gospels in the Bible, the reader receives the life of Jesus through the witness and testimony of someone that was not worthy. This is to show that God is not always found in some building but in the people that build it. God exists everywhere at all times, even in the place that is forgotten, rejected, and frowned upon (the Ghetto).I, Devan Meighan, the least of these, a minister and Elder of the Gospel, do testify of how the Unknown God became known to me. With every word do I hope to reveal Him to the reader of this book. Salutations to the saints and to the sinners that God has reached or is still reaching for. I hope that this book will be effective in affecting the way you see God. In such a way that is pleasing in His sight. As the book progress, I hope that you will see less of me and all of Him, to the Glory of God forever and ever. Amen.
Download or read book The Black Messiah written by Albert B. Cleage and published by Lushena Books. This book was released on 1989 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: That white Americans continue to insist upon a white Christ in the face of all historical evidence to the contrary and despite the hundreds of shrines to Black Madonnas all over the world, is the crowning demonstration of their white supremacist conviction that all things good and valuable must be white. On the other hand, until black Christians are ready to challenge this lie, they have not freed themselves from their spiritual bondage to the white man nor established in their own minds their right to first-class citizenship in Christ's kingdom on earth.
