”The embryonic stage of Black Theology is over… This is a time for introspection and analysis… the black theologian must clarify… what BLACK RELIGION is. Interpreters of Black Theology must begin to ensure that the theology they present is true to the black religious experience which it purports to indicate and represent. It is hoped that the study presented here will help to point the way to such analysis and reflection.” Cecil W. Cone

An introduction to pastoral care for pastors of small membership churches.
“If you spend your whole life serving small membership churches and doing it well, yours will have been a life well spent.”  Small membership churches have a real advantage when it comes to incorporating people into a fellowship where they are known and where their needs are met.  These churches and their pastors have an opportunity for excellence in this area, and should make the most of it.  Good pastoral care can be the key to effectiveness in all of the other ministries of the church.
