From Publishers Weekly
There aren't enough books written for African-American Christian families; too many authors simply assume that "one size fits all" and pen their parenting books accordingly. This guide, by a married couple with three sons, uses an extended metaphor of feasting to suggest that the African-American family needs to nourish itself with "soul food" by leaning upon God and each other. Yes, the numerous food metaphors get old after a few chapters, but they serve to illuminate the Powells' overarching idea that God intends life as a banquet for those he loves. The Powells suggest ways of deepening family spirituality, such as holding family prayer, doing practical activities to teach children values, and connecting with African-American heritage. They also discuss special challenges to the African-American family, including a section on "the dark side of hip-hop." The book is well organized and very pragmatic, though the writing could use some tweaking here and there.
