James H. Cone and Black Liberation Theology

Since Cone's Black Theology and Black Power was first published in 1969, he has been recognized as one of the most creative contemporary black theologians. Roundly criticized by white theologians, the book and Cone's subsequent writings nevertheless gave voice and viability to the developing black theologial movement of the late 1960s. Despite his influence on the African American religious community, scholars have written very little about his works, in part because of the sharp rhetoric and polemics of his first two books. Discussed here are some of his major writings, from his first essay, "Christianity and Black Power" (1968), through the major work Martin & Malcolm & America (1991). The systematic development of his themes (social and economic analysis, black sexism, relations between black, feminist, and so-called third-world theologies, etc.) is fully explained.

Daring to Speak in God's Name: Ethical Prophecy in Ministry

Mulligan, Mary Alice

Pilgrim Pr

Standing in the Margin consists of 12 small-group study sessions for adults to challenge individuals and congregations to stand with those who have the least. With care and insight based on their years of experience, Mulligan and Burrow explore the biblical and theological roots of ministry with the poor, disenfranchised, and others who live in the margins, and offer practical, hands-on help for how to minister with--not to--those who live and work at the edge of society.

Standing in the Margin: How Your Congregation Can Minister With the Poor (and perhaps recover its soul in the process)
