Editorial Reviews

To persist in overcoming evil and injustice, we mustTell the Story (Revelation 12:11). The various contributors in this book share powerful stories of God's work in the lives of a host of influential figures in Black history. The contributors also discuss how God has used lesser-known figures, who have often escaped the purview of historians. The devotions facilitate daily and deep meditation on the story of God in Scripture and the Black experience.

These are voices from whom I want to learn faith. Many have already been my teachers, and now they are sharing this beautiful gift with the church that God loves. If you're hungry to discover the fullness of how Jesus-the-liberator has transformed the world, and continues to do it through His people, this book is for you. As you rediscover history through these fresh eyes, and hear from these important voices, the gospel of Jesus that is good news for the world will seem even bigger.
