Mighty like a river : the black church and social reform

Author:	Andrew Billingsley
Publisher:	New York : Oxford University Press, ©1999.
Edition/Format:	Book : EnglishView all editions and formats
Summary:	"An expert in African American culture. Andrew Billingsley surveys nearly a thousand black churches across the country, including its oldest, the First African Baptist Church in Savannah, Georgia. These black churches, whose roots extend back to antebellum times, have periodically confronted social, economic, and political problems facing the African American community. Mighty Like a River addresses such questions as: How widespread and effective is the community activity of black churches? What are the patterns of activities being undertaken today? How do activist churches confront such problems as family instability, youth development, AIDS and other health issues, and care for the elderly?" "With profiles of the remarkable black heroes and heroines who helped create the activist church, and a compelling agenda for expanding the black church's role in society at large, Mighty Like a River is an inspirational, visionary, and definitive account of the subject."--BOOK JACKET.  Read more...
