Heroes of Black Church History: A Christmas Present

Friends,

I’d like to suggest a Christmas present that costs as little as one fast-food meal, but fills a hungry soul for a lifetime. Give the gift of life lessons from heroes of Black Church history.

Beyond the Suffering: Embracing the Legacy of African American Soul Care and Spiritual Direction is on sale for 50% off (just $7.50 plus S/H). Purchase a copy today at:

For your pastor, deacon, elder, SS teacher, parishioner, father, mother, son, daughter, sibling, co-worker, friend, or neighbor, give the empowering gift of stirring narratives that portray victory snatched from the jaws of defeat. As Pastor Tony Evans declares, “After you engage Beyond the Suffering, you will have a deeper understanding of how God forged character in people through their suffering and be able to apply many valuable insights to your personal life and future ministry. The captivating true stories and first-hand narratives have a therapeutic and healing quality.

Order before December 20, 2008, and I will email you for free my forty-page Guide to African American Resources which reviews over 125 books on African American history, life, and ministry (normally $10.00).

Order in Bulk for Your Sunday School Class, Small Group Ministry,
Church Library, Para-Church Ministry

Many churches are now using Beyond the Suffering as a ten-to-thirteen week small group study, or Sunday School class for pre-teens, teens, and adults. With the built-in, engaging, thought-provoking discussion guide, Beyond the Suffering is a one-of-kind tool for encouraging and equipping your congregation. As Donna Eggett of Christian Book Previews predicts, “This may well be the book of the year! This book will make an excellent preparation for our youth and adults as they head into a dangerous future.”

Order ten or more copies before December 20, 2008 (for your Sunday School class, small group ministry, church library, ministry resource room, para-church ministry, future gift-giving, etc.), and I will email you for free ten PowerPoint presentations on Beyond the Suffering with hundreds of slides and 1,000s of images. With the book, the built-in discussion guide, and the PowerPoint presentations, you will have everything you need right at your fingertips to teach your people in Sunday School class and to facilitate your people in small group ministries about the heroes of Black Church history.
