BAPTIST BAPTIST HISTORY & BELIEFS

A HISTORY OF THE BLACK BAPTIST CHURCH I Don’t Feel No Ways Tired

WAYNE E. CROFT SR.; AFTERWORD BY J. ALFRED SMITH SR.

The history of black people in the United States is a history of challenge and resilience, of suffering and solidarity, of injustice and prophetic resistance. It is a history steeped in the hope and strength that African Americans have derived from their faith in God and from the church that provided safety, community, consolation, and empowerment. In this new volume from pastor and scholar Rev. Dr. Wayne Croft, the history of the black Baptist church unfolds—from its theological roots in the Radical Reformation of Europe and North America, to the hush arbors and praise houses of slavery’s invisible institution, to the evolution of distinctively black denominations. In a wonderfully readable narrative style, the author relates the development of diverse black Baptist associations and conventions, from the eighteenth century through the twentieth century’s civil rights movement.

Ideal for clergy and laity alike, the book highlights key leaders, theological concepts, historic events, and social concerns that influenced the growth of what we know today as the diverse black Baptist family of churches.

BAPTIST HISTORY & BELIEFS

SCHOOL OF PROPHETS

A Bicentennial History of Colgate Rochester Crozer Divinity School JOHN R. TYSON

In commemoration of the 200th anniversary of Colgate Rochester Crozer Divinity School’s beginnings—with thirteen men and thirteen dollars—this significant work unfolds the organizational history of a great theological seminary, as well as the dramatic story of the notable women and men who contributed to the school’s rich legacy. Hence, while this is a bicentennial history of an institution, it is fundamentally the history of the people who have epitomized, shaped, and advanced its expanding heritage. Thus, the narrative includes chapters about institutional growth and development, as well as chapters that serve as cameo biographies of key people who exemplified the spirit of that same period: • • • • •

William Newton Clark Walter Rauschenbusch Howard Thurman Joanna P. Moore Martin Luther King Jr.

In the final analysis, founding president Augustus Strong was correct to call this a story of “bricks, brains, and books,” but in the larger sense it is an account of the galvanizing prophetic Christian vision evolved from its American Baptist roots to the ecumenical enterprise known as Colgate Rochester Crozer Divinity School.

DEBORA JACKSON

African American women have survived 400 years of oppression by crafting a culture of resistance, perseverance in the struggle, and the ability to adapt while remaining undergirded by faith. Using the biblical story of Joseph’s exile and rise to power in Egypt, author and pastor Debora Jackson highlights leadership fundamentals gleaned from that story and from the stories of black women’s experiences that may be redeemed for the good of ourselves and our organizations.

THE FORMATION OF A PEOPLE

Christian Education and the African American Church CARMICHAEL D. CRUTCHFIELD; FOREWORD BY ANNE E. STREATY WIMBERLY

New from pastor and professor Carmichael Crutchfield, steeped in current scholarship and a lifetime of experience in the African American church, this contribution to the study of Christian education expands our understanding of education to encompass the larger life and ministry of the church—from practices of testimony, worship, and preaching to more traditional classroom contexts of Sunday school and midweek Bible study. Dr. Crutchfield further develops the concept of Christian education in light of spiritual formation, wherein our pedagogies are oriented toward forming the Christian disciple in the likeness and character of Jesus Christ. The book provides constructive definitions of Christian education and faith formation, as well as clarity about formation processes across all ages and seasons of life. The author gives particular attention to such formation as it occurs in the historic and contemporary African American church context, where those who do ministries of Christian education, faith formation, and discipleship often have a wide range of training and experience—from no formal theological education at all to specialized seminary degrees.

CHRISTIAN EDUCATION DISCIPLESHIP

TABLE LIFE

An Invitation to Everyday Discipleship GREG MAMULA; FOREWORD BY SCOT MCKNIGHT

“Eating with others is holy work.” That theological conviction inspires a compelling invitation to everyday discipleship that is centered around shared meals. A life shaped by the table is one shaped by community, pastor and author Greg Mamula argues.

We share common dishes, and the narratives of our lives begin to intertwine as we listen to our tablemates’ stories and tell our own in turn. This new book presents a uniquely holistic approach to table fellowship as a spiritual discipline. Many table fellowship resources begin and end at the table, and many spiritual discipline resources limit the theological significance of the table to the Eucharist, led by clergy. Table Life is an intentional and interactive process of reflection and action, meals and mission, listening and storytelling, scripture and perspective, communion and neighboring. These disciplines connect the individual with Christ, the local church, their neighborhood, and their community contexts. Discover how, by participating in the spiritual disciplines of eating together, listening, storytelling, scripture reading, and communion in the context of a community, you begin to be shaped into people who recognize and celebrate the presence of Christ in every aspect of life.

SEEKERS, SAINTS, AND SINNERS Life-Changing Encounters with Jesus H. STEPHEN SHOEMAKER

From the author of the critically acclaimed Godstories comes a new study for those who crave a life-changing experience with God. Over the course of 10 beautifully written chapters are the stories of 11 personal encounters between Jesus and another figure in the Gospel narratives. Each one was a chance meeting, a one-time interaction that Jesus had with someone he met along the way.

Author and pastor H. Stephen Shoemaker builds on a foundation of solid scholarship to allow the reader to meet Jesus in the life of the biblical characters—as well as to bring that encounter home to meet the living Christ in our own lives today. Great for personal study or small-group discipleship.

Ministries to Strengthen Church and Community Relationships JOY SKJEGSTAD AND HEIDI UNRUH

Authors Joy Skjegstad and Heidi Unruh provide strategies for church leaders and members to create deeper, more diverse relationships across differences and in a variety of contexts within the congregation, with other churches, and with community partners. This book challenges us to discuss and take healthy action on topics such as racism, sexual orientation, gender choices, loneliness, communicating with neighbors, and actively engaging youth and young adults. From long experience as ministry coaches and trainers, the authors offer practical suggestions for building meaningful, caring connections that address the loneliness and divisions in our society, and even within churches.

CROSSING THE LINES WE DRAW Faithful Responses to a Polarized America MATTHEW TENNANT

In a society increasingly divided along political, theological, cultural, and racial lines—lines that we have drawn to separate “us” from “them”—the Christian church is not exempt. How can we respond to the division in the world around us when we are too often polarized ourselves? Pastor and scholar Matthew Tennant offers scriptural insights for developing strategies that will equip people of faith to cross the lines in meaningful dialog within their congregations and in the communities where they live, work, and minister to others.

In this provocative book from prophetic preacher and pastor Susan Williams Smith, the author tackles the truths that the church in the United States has long held to be self-evident—that ours is one nation under God, our U.S. Constitution is (almost) as infallible as the Holy Bible, and democracy and its principles of justice for all are sacrosanct and protected by both God and government. Yet, history and headlines alike expose the fallacy of those assumptions, particularly when viewed in the light of a national culture of white supremacy and systemic racial injustice. In fact, Smith argues, the two texts we count as sacred have not been merely impotent in eliminating racism; they have been used to support and sustain white supremacy. This important work examines how our foundational documents have failed people of color and asks the question, “Can those whom a nation has considered ‘we the problem’ ever become ‘we the people’ who are celebrated in the Preamble to the Constitution?” What will it take to reclaim the transforming and affirming power of God and government to secure liberty and justice for all?

NEW RULES FOR RADICALS TNT for Faith-Based Leaders WILLIAM W. C. ASHLEY SR.

Willard Ashley revisits the need for radicals in a society that constructs systems that keep some people marginalized and reward those in power who maintain the status quo. He also provides an overview of the pioneering work and shortfalls of Saul Alinsky and the Industrial Areas Foundation (IAF) as a historical backdrop for building community and national relationships. The author also offers stories about his own experiences and collaborations, as well as examples of leaning on his faith, to encourage “new radicals” to know their context, embrace conflict, and do their homework. This book outlines strategies for radicals to strive for excellence, not mediocrity, and although they face strong and lifethreatening opposition, Ashley advocates hope for change 978-0-8170-1826-9, Paperback, $17.99 978-0-8170-8229-1, Epub, $10.99

TO LIVE IN GOD

Daily Reflections with Walter Rauschenbusch DENNIS L. JOHNSON

The main thing is to have God, to live in God, to have God live in us; … that is the blessed life.

So declared the founder of the Social Gospel, and so forms the heart of this inspirational collection of Rauschenbusch’s thoughts and prayers about the spiritual life. Comprising scriptural passages, excerpted readings, and actual prayers written by Rauschenbusch himself, this volume of 180 daily reflections will encourage and exhort readers toward spiritual growth and social action. Organized into three sections of 60 reflections each, the book focuses first on the inward journey of solitude, then the outward journey of service, and the common journey of solidarity..

DEVOTIONS FROM HERSTORY 31 Days with Women of Faith LYNN DOMINA

Women have often remained hidden in history, including religious history. Yet even nameless women can be honored, and their faith and actions can inspire us even when we don’t know exactly who they were. And when we do know the names and biographic details of women who have lived more recently, we can commit ourselves to keeping their memories alive. This book attempts to honor many women who have come before us by connecting their stories across time as a resource for our own devotional lives.

Originally intended for the 31 days of Women’s History Month in March, these undated entries permit readers to begin these devotions at any time of the year. Each day’s devotion features an illustration and brief biographical sketch of the featured woman, a Scripture that connects a biblical woman’s story with a more recent “HERstory,” as well as a prayer-poem, a question for personal meditation or group conversation, and an idea for action inspired by the women’s stories. The biblical women of faith are primarily Hebrew or early Christian women but also include Egyptians and Samaritans. The historic women with whom they are paired include women of many faith traditions, as well as various ethnic and national backgrounds. From the medieval mystic Julian of Norwich to the contemporary Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor, the women herein offer today’s readers inspiring models for the life of faith today.

From the editor of the award-winning volume Through Her Eyes: Bible Studies on Women in Scripture, comes a new collection of small-group studies about more women of the Bible.

Written by a diverse group of seminarians from a variety of denominations and cultures, each chapter features solid biblical background as well as questions for individual reflection and group discussion.

SACRED DECISIONS Consensus in Faith Communities

MARCIA J. PATTON AND NORA J. PERCIVAL

This book offers congregational leaders and others the opportunity to explore and implement consensus as a decisionmaking model. Authors Marcia J. Patton and Nora J. Percival clearly state what consensus is and what it is not. They provide a “how-to” resource for persons who want to change how their groups make decisions. Although voting, the “holy way,” the “majority rule,” and Robert’s Rules of Order are deeply entrenched in this country, a consensus is another way to think through, discuss, feel, and arrive at a decision. Patton and Percival provide real-life examples, planning and meeting ideas, and essential steps to develop a consensus decision-making model.

PASTORAL CARE/COUNSELING

MAKING SPACE AT THE WELL Mental Health and the Church

JESSICA YOUNG BROWN, PhD; FOREWORD BY MICAH L. McCREARY

When it comes to ministry related to mental health concerns, prayer and Scripture are not enough.

Beginning with the biblical motif of going to the village well for the waters that sustain life and exploring the communal significance of that well, pastor, professor, and clinical psychologist Jessica Young Brown calls on the black church to rally its historic resilience and creativity to acknowledge and engage those in its pews who are struggling with mental health concerns. Using the acronym of SPACE, the author discusses:

• Silencing the Stigma―naming the negative attitudes and mistaken assumptions about mental illness, especially in the African American community • Presence and Persistence―identifying the importance of authentic relationships in healing mind and spirit • Application and Action―highlighting practical steps to address needs as they emerge • Cautions and Crises―being real about the fears and risks related to mental health crises, including the importance of referrals • Expression and Exhortation―calling on the cultural power of testimony to encourage the entire congregation to access the healing power of God

Rev. Dr. Young Brown concludes with a practical exploration of “Now What?

Digging the Well and Drawing from It.” The book’s appendix features a brief primer on common mental disorders that frequently affect members of our family, neighborhood, and church.

THE ART OF ELOQUENCE

GOD IN THE GHETTO

JOSEPH EVANS; FOREWORD BY RICHARD LISCHER

WILLIAM AUGUSTUS JONES JR.; EDITED BY JENNIFER JONES AUSTIN; FOREWORD BY MICHAEL ERIC DYSON

THE SACRED RHETORIC OF GARDNER C. TAYLOR

During his lifetime, Rev. Dr. Gardner C. Taylor was hailed by TIME magazine as the dean of America’s black preachers. Newsweek honored him as one of the 12 greatest preachers in the English-speaking world.

A civil rights leader, a Presidential Medal of Honor recipient, and a longtime pastor, Taylor was called “the poet laureate of American Protestantism.” In this critical volume, scholar and pastor Joseph Evans analyzes the art of Taylor’s preaching according to the five classical canons of rhetoric, celebrating in particular his excellence in narrative eloquence, which was the heart of his persuasive proclamation. Through a close reading of Taylor’s sermons and careful scholarship in the discipline of rhetoric, Evans provides homileticians and rhetoricians alike with an incisive and accessible understanding of the oratorical brilliance of the man whose eloquence transcended theological boundaries and sociopolitical and cultural constructs.

The book also features new essays reflecting on the legacy and influence of Dr. Jones and his work, from notable leaders including James Forbes, Frederick Haynes, Otis Moss III, J. Alfred Smith Sr., Al Sharpton, Jacqueline Thompson, and more!

PREACHING & SERMON

MOVING THE MASSES PILLARS OF PROPHETIC PREACHING REGINALD W. WILLIAMS JR.

Reginald Williams understands and hears the divine calling of prophetic preaching as a connection of what happens between the internal preacher and the delivery that moves people to take action. In this book, Williams selects a number of preaching practitioners whose written work examines prophetic preaching, and he draws on their work in his methodical definition.

Williams complements his discussion on prophetic preaching with various methods of delivery. He illustrates preaching methods with vivid examples and explanations that bring life to the listener, reader, and doer of God’s Word. Discover the three pillars of prophetic preaching (meaning, method, and movement), and how you can add power to your preaching and engage people to make a difference through the Word.

THEOLOGY

LET THE OPPRESSED GO FREE EXPLORING THEOLOGIES OF LIBERATION MARVIN A. McMICKLE

From pastor, scholar, and best-selling author Marvin McMickle comes this new volume that considers the evolution of liberation theologies in their historic and cultural contexts. Beginning with his own formative experiences with the black theology of James Cone, the author explores the socioeconomic implications of Latino/a liberation theologies, and considers in depth the theologies of feminist scholars, womanist theologians, and women in ministry. More than a chronological history or intellectual analysis, this book breathes with lived faith and practical theology, acknowledging the contexts out of which theologies of liberation emerge and the transforming impact they have on the social and political lives of Christians today.

TAKING APART BOOTSTRAP THEOLOGY GOSPEL OF GENEROSITY AND JUSTICE TERRELL CARTER

Professor and pastor Terrell Carter unites scholarly critique with practical wisdom in this new book that exposes the racist and classist assumptions entangled in the rugged individualism of what he calls “bootstrap theology.”

Dismantling both the impossible idiom of “pulling yourself up by your own bootstraps” and the social theory of Marx’s Protestant Work Ethic, Carter challenges the academy and church to advance a more faithful gospel, one that extends a spirit of generosity and a call to social justice for all God’s people, especially the most vulnerable.
