| Description: |
The Black Church has been extremely silent about issues surrounding the sexual dimension of the body, the appreciation of the body, and the erotic. This work presents an argument that the Black Church must begin to address the significance of sexuality if it is to actually present liberation as a mode of existence that fully appreciates the body. |
| Synopsis: |
In this book, contributors argue that the Black Church must begin to address the significance of sexuality if it is to actually present liberation as a mode of existence that fully appreciates the body. The contributors argue that we not only have to look at the Black Church in this discussion, but also explore black Christianity in general. |
