Description

Once again, Emilie Townes brings together essays by leading womanist theologians, interweaving a concern for matters of race, gender, and class as these bear on the well-being of the African-American community. Her emphasis is not on evil and suffering, but on "hope, salvation, and transformation" for individuals and their communities.

A sequel to A Troubling in My Soul in which African American women offer stimulating and thoughtful essays for all those concerned with the life and health of the Black churches today.
