Practical Theology for Black Churches: Bridging Black Theology and African American Folk ReligionThe rift between black theology, with its social and political concerns, and black churches, with their emphases on pastoral care and piety, has been growing.

The rift between black theology, with its social and political concerns, and black churches, with their emphases on pastoral care and piety, has been growing. Here, Dale Andrews offers a way to bridge this gap by redefining the paradigm of church as "refuge" in terms of a faith identity that brings together a concern for liberation with a pastoral focus on spirituality. This faith identity emerges from dominant biblical themes that shape preaching and pastoral care.

Andrews' insightful analysis of the gulf between black churches and black theology reveals the invasive influence of individualism in black religious life as well as the shared values for social change and care of the soul. Notably, it is this influence of individualism that has disrupted communal solidarity and brought about the neglect of liberation ethics within black church life. This practical theology will contribute greatly towards renewing the pastoral and prophetic ministry of black religious life.

Windshield wiper blades
Size: 24" + 19"(Pair for Front Windshield Lock)
Easy to install and fit perfectly on our 2023 Honda Civic sport. Good quality for a brand that is much cheaper than buying from the local auto parts store store. The last pair of these lasted a few years in the Florida sun so they are durable. The clean the windshield well and leave it streak free
