A Survey of the Black Church in America: Exploring Its History, Ministry, and Unique Strengths

If the Bible is allowed to be the standard by which blacks and whites determine truth, then freedom from this moral and racial malaise will be the outcome; for as Jesus taught, the truth has a unique capacity of making people free. Dr. Tony Evans

Respected and beloved pastor Tony Evans provides an accessible overview of black church history. Evans opens our eyes to the black presence in the Scriptures and takes a focused look at the uniqueness and place of the black church.
