I want to bring your attention to a book by one of my colleagues, Dr. Demetrius K. Williams:
The Cross of Christ in African American Christian Religious Experience: Piety, Politics, and Protest (Lexington Books, 2023).
I reviewed his book, which will be published in the April 2025 issue of
Interpretation: A Journal of Bible and Theology (79.1). My understanding of African American religious experience has become deeper now because of this provocative, transformative, deeply spiritual, and insightful book. Simply put, it is a soulful book.
Dr. Williams engaged in an extensive discussion about his book in an interview with
the Calvin Institute of Christian Worship.
