Description: "On viewing the Christian Church in America--polarized as it is--black and white--one could easily get a distorted picture of its history. Few books have been written on the Black Church, and by their limited scope, these books further the distortion. The biggest distortion being the assumption that the Black Church began in the 18th Century A.D., while omitting the fact that Ethiopia, a black country, is the oldest Christian country in the world!" -- from preface
