Sunday Morning: Black Church Traditions That Got Us Through

By B. Williams Waters

Fourth-generation ordained minister B Williams Waters has lived through and heard the history of suffering and victory, segregation and unity, trial and tradition that has shaped the Black Church.

Written by Waters and 15 other contributors raised in the Black Church, these 40 devotions

begin with a Scripture passage; reflect on topics such as education, community, family, worship, and faith; share traditions and histories of growing up in the Black Church; and remind Black Christians that the Black Church still has the power to serve the present age and shape generations to come.

In the face of segregation, the Black Church created a space for Black Christians to find confidence in God's love for them and assurance that they are greatly valued in the eyes of their Creator. This was a place where freedom was formed and spread beyond the walls of church buildings and into the heart of communities.

Remember this valuable history today and find the truth that these hymns of unity, freedom, and perseverance still ring in the pews today just as they have for generations.
