Description
Summary:The reflection seeks to offer alternative thoughts on a “search for the soul of Black preaching.” Casual allusion is made to experience, music, Scripture, literature, scholarship, context, and jurisprudence, for clues as to how and where the soul of Black preaching might be found. A central suggestion is that “Black preaching” is not simply a contemporary racial or ethnic construct, but a timeless provisional and contextual divine warrant from the beginning of creation to proclaim liberation from chaos, profess divine truth to power, and offer enduring hope in light of historical injustices.
