Exploring the parameters of the African Methodist Episcopal
Church's dual existence as evangelical Christians and as children
of Ham, this book explains how the denomination relies on the
rhetoric of evangelicalism and heathenism to construct an identity.
A. Nevell Owens shows how the Voice of Mission, the missionary
newspaper of the church, played an integral role in the definition
of the denomination as evangelical vis-a-vis the "heathen African."
By looking at the Voice of Mission as a primary source document,
this book further examines the extent to which the African
Methodist Episcopal Church affectively lived out its existence in
two different worlds that were more often than not diametrically
opposed to each other.
