For Such a Time as This

Focusing on the pastoral theology of two African American Independent Pentecostal churches, this volume examines the interplay of scripture interpretation, spiritual experiences, and cultural context. It highlights the challenges faced by the Rock of Life Church, linked to a historically white denomination, and the Church of God Pillar of Truth, associated with the predominantly African-American Church of God in Christ. Antipas Harris argues that inadequate critical reflection by male leaders has led to repression, particularly affecting women, and advocates for a more collaborative decision-making approach to foster a liberating church identity and mission.
