Christian Education in the African American Church: A Guide for Teaching Truth

Rating:
Summary: excellent, east to use resource for christian educators!
Review: This book is a tremendous addition to the tools available to African American churches. It provides historical information about Christian education; easy-to-understand tips for teaching all age groups and ability levels; definitions of African-centered Christian education and resources for materials (purchased, adapted, or designed); how to evaluate your programs; case studies of churches with Afri-Christian structures; and interviews from churches actively engaged in Christian education. This book makes you think about how to design programs that meet the needs of modern churches, are specific to the faith history and traditions of the African American church, and are applicable to all denominatons. This will be the text for all of my teachers!
