A New Dawn in Beloved Community
Faith in Jesus Christ incorporates all Christians into the body of Christ, the invisible communion of all believers. But the church, as a human institution, remains broken and unable to embody fully this unity or oneness. Too often, the failure of Christians to manifest God’s love is rooted in differences in culture, traditions, or language that lead to fear and misunderstanding. This book brings together a collection of stories—of songs—that give the reader insight, that provide examples of how to share stories and learn from them, and that ultimately can lead to a new way of understanding the concepts of beloved community and the body of Christ.
Mother Wit
Although the daily readings in this book can be read in a short period of time, they will provide the reader "food for thought" that will last much longer. Each devotion suggests that the reader begin with a scripture passage. Meditations uplift the spirit to give the reader a positive way to begin or end the day. The brevity of the selections enable women to find time for devotional reading at any time. Most important, Mother Wit helps the reader see how being an African-American woman has shaped her faith journey.
365 Meditations for Young Adults
"This book offers a year's worth of short daily devotional readings written specifically for today's young adults. Though this is a diverse group with a variety of needs and interests, they are sojourners together on a common journey-one that includes many similar experiences, stages, and transitions that each of them has been through, is currently going through, or will go through at some time in the future. The young adult years are a time of change and challenge, a time of seeking and searching, a time of exploration and discovery-in short, a time of tremendous opportunity for personal and spiritual growth. As readers make their way through the book, encountering a different writer or team of writers each month, they will find practical and spiritual insights, encouragement, and a sense of camaraderie for the journey."

Becoming the Anti-Racist Church
Christians addressing racism in American society must begin with a frank assessment of how race figures in the churches themselves, leading activist Joseph Barndt argues. This practical and important volume extends the insights of Barndt's earlier, more general work to address the race situation in the churches themselves and to equip people there to be agents for change in and beyond their church communities.
