This book was written based on Betty Knight's ability to balance
and critically analyze three of these orators' speeches made during
three different eras of American history. Her insights allow
readers to see what I saw immediately after speaking with on her on
many occasions: her unique way of interpreting the past, present,
and the future. The deposit that Knight has made to her readers'
lives will demonstrate that she is not among the many but among the
few; "for many are called, but few are chosen." After reading her
other book "W.H.O.L.E.," I realized that Betty Knight had something
to say to the class of 2010 and her colleagues in the ministry. So
I asked her to be the keynote speaker at her own graduation in
Chicago, Illinois on September 11, 2010. She agreed. Her keynote
address was entitled "If you can wait your time, you will have your
turn." Knight has received her Doctorate of Philosophy in Ministry.
After reading her thesis, I truly understand why God has equipped
her to have an impact on her audience as well as keep it present
throughout this experience.In this book, Knight addresses how
Christianity and the United States Constitution stand somewhat at
odds with each other while sometimes forming a bond, those of
creative mind and genius that make it possible for them to deal
together with key problems of American history. Knight's writing
brings this theme center stage, including the many contradictions
within Christianity as a religious institution and interpretations
of its sacred text, the Bible, from which, a way of life was drawn
by those who attempted to understand and practice Christianity
within Western culture. This book enables the reader to understand
when and how to reconcile these contradictions. In addition, the
book identifies basic essentials for life, its governance, and its
survival - all to be viewed from the perspective of numerous
identifying principles that have caused alienation within American
life. When you finish reading this book you will completely
understand why God called these African Americans orators Douglass,
King, and Obama center stage.
