Christopher C. Brittain

An Introduction to Colonial African-American Evangelical Theology

Theology

“This is a passionate book by a passionate theologian who is willing to challenge dominant trends in his field. Cory May endeavors to retrieve the voices and faith of African-American Christians as a resource for contemporary Christians in a way that avoids having these past witnesses controlled by the dominant agendas and rhetoric of the present moment. While historical retrievals are always the source of debate and controversy, any reader will be struck by Dr. May’s intense commitment to seeking out ways in which these voices from the African-American experience can nurture authentic Christian faith.”

Worship or Suicide

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“With its provocative assertion that ‘worship is inevitable,’ this book offers a timely reflection on the critical importance of choosing the object of one’s worship with care. Enriched by personal examples, the analysis is a rich resource for thinking about the significance of the rituals and symbols that shape our lives and communities.”
