520 1 $a"Historically Black churches, says Julia Speller, have stood in the gap providing not only a place of worship but also sources of mutual aid, educational encouragement, and cultural identity for their members in a society that denied them full rights as American citizens. But today, many congregations still struggle with what it means to be both Black and Christian." "Realizing this challenge has both a cultural (Black) and a spiritual (Christian) basis, Walkin' the Talk seeks to identify a practical spirituality that will assist Black congregations as they try to embrace both their cultural identity and their spirituality." "The book takes a look at three diverse congregations - Imani Temple Christian Fellowship, First Afrikan Presbyterian Church, and Trinity United Church of Christ - to offer readers a glimpse into these settings to see how they have successfully merged their faith and culture."--BOOK JACKET.
