Details
Discover why African American Christianity is essential for all of us. Dr. Walter R. Strickland, author of Swing Low: A History of Black Christianity in the United States, takes you through 400 years of faith, deliverance, and theological wisdom.
Description
Join Dr. Walter R. Strickland II for an evening conversation exploring African American Christianity—not as a historical footnote, but as living theological tradition that enriches the whole church.
For some, this story is a window—expanding your view of God’s world, broadening your understanding of the sea of witnesses to Christ, and showing you what you haven’t yet seen. For others, it’s a mirror—clarifying your own history, deepening your understanding of yourself, and grounding your faith in a richer tradition.
Either way, we’re all enriched by this telling.
Drawing from his research on African American theology, Walter will explore stories and vignettes that illuminate why this 400-year legacy matters for pastors, leaders, and students alike.
Who should attend: Pastors, church leaders, seminary students, lay people, and anyone seeking to understand African American Christianity more deeply—and what it offers all of us.
