Zero Point Circle

—Reliable though a tax may be Supporting elderly, poor and helpless, Cruises, yet, Alaska bound Are set for Acapulco gold and eggs Of fish to hatch another heaven Lying in and to the sun exposing Windows of dirt in religion, race And politics way behind the norm, The ship is now a harbor.— I would think there is a way around ourselves. But where is it? My advice is to study the answer. But what is the nature of the answer? I see the multiplicity of questions is unique to each individual. My conclusion has been that the question and the answer are one divinity. Divinity is everywhere. The question may be how do we not forget? Here in these slices of awareness, I have sought, in some way, on some level to remind.

"An outstanding study of the call to ministry among African American clergy. This is the broadest and deepest study of African American call stories and narratives ever written . . . Myers has placed the call narratives and stories in theoretical perspective, relating them to the traditions of hermeneutics and theological reflection. Highly recommended."--Lawrence H. Mamiya, Vassar College.

This is a groundbreaking study in the African American religious experience. Never before has there been a published collection of oral African American "call" stories that treats them as a genre worthy of scholarly analysis. This volume of eighty-six stories was collected in tape-recorded interviews over a six year period from 1985 to 1991. Significantly, this unique, in-depth study represents at least eight different Christian denominations. Many of the men and women who share their "call" story in this volume are nationally and internationally known.

Highly recommended for all students of African American religious traditions."" --Lawrence H. Mamiya, Vassar College ""The churches need this examination of a distinctive phenomenon of the African American religious experience to which Myers applies impressive cross-disciplinary research skills and insight. A fine contribution to black religious studies!"" --Gayraud S. Wilmore, Editor, Journal of the Interdenominational Theological Center ""This is a pioneering work. It attends to a central dimension of African American Christianity, the call, a topic largely neglected by theologians and religious studies scholars. Bringing multiple perspectives to bear, Myers argues that the call is not only a kind of religious hermeneutic but also a form of ritual and of narrative. Myers has a finely tuned ear for the nuances and richness of specific African American voices."" --Ron Grimes, Wilfrid Laurier University William H. Myers is Professor of New Testament and Black Church Studies at Ashland Theological Seminary, Ashland, Ohio, and is the president and CEO of the McCreary Center for African American Religious Studies. Born in Stonewall, Mississippi, Myers received a PhD in religious studies in 1991 from the University of Pittsburgh. In addition to numerous articles in religious journals, he has also authored the book The Irresistible Urge to Preach: A Collection of African American ""Call"" Stories, which serves as a companion volume to this book.
