"The history of black people in the United States is a history of challenge and resilience, of suffering and solidarity, of injustice and prophetic resistance. It is a history steeped in the hope and strength that African Americans have derived from their faith in God and from the church that provided safety, community, consolation, and empowerment. In this new volume from pastor and scholar Rev. Dr. Wayne Croft, the history of the black Baptist church unfolds-from its theological roots in the Radical Reformation of Europe and North America, to the hush arbors and praise houses of slavery's invisible institution, to the evolution of distinctively black denominations. In a wonderfully readable narrative style, the author relates the development of diverse black Baptist associations and conventions, from the eighteenth century through the twentieth century's civil rights movement. Ideal for clergy and laity alike, the book highlights key leaders, theological concepts, historic events, and social concerns that influenced the growth of what we know today as the diverse black Baptist family of churches"--

This book is a comprehensive study of the historic development of African American Christianity from early African spirituality through slavery in America to the present time. The basic thesis of the book is that in order to understand the evolution of the African American Church one has to search diligently earlier formative social and theological thoughts and movements; and, to elucidate how they impacted African American Church life. It contains nine chapters dealing with such themes as, Early Christianity in Africa, Euro-African Faith tradition and evangelism among American slaves; the social and religious thought which dominated church life in bi-racial churches; the rise of African American separate churches; slave preachers and early African American churches; the evolution and Institutionalization of African American Churches; Emancipation, Church Growth and New Religious Movements, dealing with mainline denominations, Pentecostal and Holiness denominations, sects and cults; Christian Missions of African American Denominations and the emerging globalization of Christian Missions; the Rise of Denominational Schools; the Social and Political Tradition of African American Churches, drawing significantly from African American newspapers to explore such themes as the abolitionist movement, slave revolts, the Civil War and Reconstruction, moral reform movements, segregation and discrimination in the South, the anti-lynching movement, enforcement of voting rights, impact of migration on the churches, the civil rights movement and the "Black Power" movement; and, Emerging Trends In African American Church Life, exploring such subtitles as the ecumenical movement, affirmative action debate, reparation movement, up-ward mobility in church life, women in ministry, rise of mega-churches, and the exploding moral crisis debates, regarding human sexuality and gay marriages.

The Puritans hounded the Baptists out of Massachusetts Bay Colony. Four hundred years later, Baptists are the second-largest religious group in America, and their influence matches their numbers. Yet the historical legacy, and the inherently fractured nature of their faith, makes Baptists ever wary of threats from within as well as without. Kidd and Hankins, both practicing Baptists, weave the threads of Baptist history alongside those of American history to show how one religious denomination was transformed from persecuted minority into a leading actor on the national stage, with profound implications for American society and culture.
