His Book Reverend Albert Cleage Jr. and the Black Prophetic Tradition: A Reintroduction of The Black Messiah considers how Albert Cleage Jr., in his groundbreaking book of sermons, The Black Messiah (1969), reconfigures the rules of the game as it relates to Christianity and the social political realities of Black people in Detroit and across the country. Taking a rhetorical approach, this book explores how and what The Black Messiah (1969) has contributed to the broader scope of Black Liberation Theology and Black religious rhetoric. Scholars of rhetoric, communication, religious studies, and African American history will find this book particularly useful. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/rev-hooker/support

A joint worship service between Central UMC and the First Vietnamese-American UMC. The sermon is preached in both English and Vietnamese, with the Rev. Sarah Harrison-McQueen preaching in English and the Rev. Hieu Duc Phan preaching in Vietnamese.Scripture is John 1:1-17.In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God.The Word was with God in the beginning.Everything came into being through the Word, and without the Word nothing came into being.What came into being through the Word was life, and the life was the light for all people.The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness doesn't extinguish the light.A man named John was sent from God. He came as a witness to testify concerning the light, so that through him everyone would believe in the light. He himself wasn't the light, but his mission was to testify concerning the light.The true light that shines on all people was coming into the world.The light was in the world, and the world came into being through the light, but the world didn't recognize the light.The light came to his own people, and his own people didn't welcome him.But those who did welcome him, those who believed in his name, he authorized to become God's children, born not from blood nor from human desire or passion, but born from God.The Word became flesh and made his home among us.We have seen his glory, glory like that of a father's only son, full of grace and truth.John testified about him, crying out, “This is the one of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me is greater than me because he existed before me.'”From his fullness we have all received grace upon grace; as the Law was given through Moses, so grace and truth came into being through Jesus Christ.Support the show (http://tinyurl.com/donatecumc)

What are some ways that pastors and church leaders can help people make good decisions? In this episode, Bob and Stephanie interview Rev.
