Forged in the Fiery Furnance African American Spirituality

African-American spirituality was forged in the fiery furnace of slavery, segregation, and ongoing radical discrimination in both church and society. But African Americans are a people who are strengthened rather than weakened by their experience. This volume traces how African Americans have articulated their faith and love of God in language, song, and daily living. It shows how for African Americans spirituality has nurtured their survival as well as action on behalf of the community and the greater society.Hayes, Diana is the author of 'Forged in the Fiery Furnance African American Spirituality' with ISBN 9781570754722 and ISBN 1570754721.
