Craig Keener and Glenn Usry's highly acclaimed Black Man's Religion showed in impressive detail that Christianity and Afrocentricity can go together. Now they turn to specific, nitty-gritty questions put to the black church by non-Christians:
- Is everything good in Christianity plagiarized from traditional African religions?
- Isn't it intolerant to say Christ is the only way to God?
- Is the Bible reliable?
- What about criticisms of Christianity made bythe Nation of Islam?
Keener and Usry meet these and other important questions head-on, providing responses relevant to and especially for black men and women.
