The roots of African American spirituality arise from the African
origins of the enslaved who were brought to the West in chains.
Flora Wilson Bridges explores these "African retentions" from their
manifestations in Africa, through their presence in the slave
communities of the American South and in Black churches today. The
unique spirituality that arose from these retentions influenced
many prominent black leaders including Howard Thurman, Martin
Luther King, Jr. and Malcolm X. In a fascinating chapter, Bridges
also shows how these African roots inform Black film, literature,
and art.

This devotional probes the depths of Scripture, calling us to radical
discipleship. Russel D. Fox observes that the church is struggling with
pursuing holiness, which leads to conflict and the splintering of
churches. Drawing from his experiences growing up and his career in the
car business, he shares how to apply biblical principles as you pursue
holiness. He considers questions such as: - What must we do before we
work on our holiness? - How can we draw closer to the Father through
the Son? - How can we enter the kingdom of heaven? - What are the
consequences of sin? You're encouraged to read each devotional with
God's Word open. Take time to chew on what you have read and meditate
on God's Word and journal as you go through this book. These
thought-provoking devotionals will challenge you to go on a deeper,
more profound walk with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
