Book Synopsis Empower the People by : Theodore Walker
Download or read book Empower the People written by Theodore Walker and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2001-05 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is a study in theological social ethics for North American black churches. It aims to present a conception of liberty/freedom and a liberating social ethic, both relentlessly informed by a black churchly understanding of ourselves in relation to God. There are two main questions: How should we conceive of liberty/freedom? and What should contemporary black churches do in order to contribute to the continuing struggle for liberty? Answers derive from consulting black church history, black theology and the philosophy of black power. Also, the descriptions, predictions and public policy prescriptions of liberal and black sociologies are evaluated from a black churchly perspective. Rightly conceived, liberty/freedom includes comprehensive social-economic-political empowerment and righteous relations to God and others. Accordingly, we church folk should empower the people through an ethic of breaking bread. The religious and social stakes are high. Where bread is not broken, Jesus is not recognized, God is not served, and the people are not free.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his seminal work, "The African American Church: Financial Business & Operations Management Guide For Church Leadership - Principles, Practices, and Strategies For Effective Stewardship & Outreach", Dr. G.R. Quarles draws from his extensive experience in business and academia to provide church leaders with a comprehensive guide to effective financial and operations management. As a guidebook and a manual, this work digs deep into the core financial practices and strategies that are crucial for successful church management. From the importance of financial management and the role of church leadership to the crucial aspect of managing church assets and investments, Dr. Quarles explores every angle, illuminating pathways to enhance and optimize church operations. He also delves into the legal and tax considerations that are unique to African American churches, providing a guide to IRS publications and discussing insurance and liability coverage. The book addresses complex issues like church consolidation, merger, and closure, providing insight into the reasons churches choose these paths and detailing the steps involved in each process. A comprehensive discussion on fundraising strategies for African American churches serves as a practical guide for sustainable financial operations. Dr. Quarles further outlines the importance of having proper legal documents, contingency plans, and security management systems. He explores the current state of the African American Church and its financial future, emphasizing the importance of financial literacy and generational wealth. In the latter parts of the book, the focus shifts to outreach and community development, urging churches to think outside the box and explore entrepreneurial opportunities. He guides churches on how to foster entrepreneurship and invest in promising entrepreneurs within their community. Lastly, the book provides responses to common questions, such as whether a church can do business with the Federal government for profit or own rental property and/or a senior living facility. Through its 26 chapters, this book is a treasure trove of insights, serving as an essential resource for those looking to navigate the complex financial and operational landscapes of running a church. It is a must-read for church leaders, finance committees, and anyone involved in managing or overseeing church operations.

Book Synopsis Weekend Wealth Transfer by : Gwen Richardson
Download or read book Weekend Wealth Transfer written by Gwen Richardson and published by . This book was released on 2016-10-05 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every Sunday in black churches across America collection plates are passed and parishioners insert their tithes and offerings. The very next day, as those funds are deposited in church bank accounts, the transfer of millions of dollars occurs as those funds are placed in financial institutions that are not owned by African Americans. However, the weekend's wealth transfer does not end there. It continues throughout the remainder of the week as the majority of mortgage companies, landlords, insurance companies, and vendors most black churches utilize are also not African American-owned. This wealth transfer, estimated at billions of dollars per year, occurs largely unconsciously but its impact is enormous. The transfer would not be so problematic if a reciprocating money stream was flowing from other communities into black-owned enterprises. In other words, if churches from other ethnic groups were collecting funds each weekend and transferring them to black-owned banks and businesses, the two realities would be balanced, with essentially one cancelling out the other. Instead all of the funds are moving in one direction-away from black communities and entrepreneurs. This book is the second installment in a series on group economics, the missing link and Achilles heel of African-American economic progress. The first installment, Why African Americans Can't Get Ahead: And How We Can Solve It With Group Economics, was published in 2008. The purpose of this book is to explore the economic impact of the transfer of wealth away from black communities via the black church, its impact on those communities, and strategies to reverse this trend.
Download or read book Unfinished Business written by Keri Day and published by Orbis Books. This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This portrayal of the poverty of black women in this country describes the unemployment, underemployment, isolation, and lack of assets they typically experience. The author also takes on and demolishes the common stereotypes that castigate poor black women as "morally problematic and dependent on the money of good tax-paying citizens." She then calls on the black churches to become potential agents of change and leaders in addressing the unequal social and economic structures that hold captive these poor women. The goal is to empower poor black women to develop assets that will prevent long-term poverty and allow them to flourish.

Book Synopsis Black Megachurch Culture by : Sandra L. Barnes
Download or read book Black Megachurch Culture written by Sandra L. Barnes and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2010 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book identifies how church cultural components are created, developed, and used to educate and empower adherents, and whether and how these tools are associated with the historic Black Church. The book is particularly interested in how large Black congregations - megachurches - use rituals found in worship, theology, racial beliefs, programmatic efforts, and other tools from their cultural repertoire to instruct congregants to model success in word and deed. The book's findings illustrate that Black megachurches strive to model success on various fronts by tapping into effective historic Black Church tools and creating cultural kits that foster excitement, expectation, and entitlement.
Book Synopsis Collective Courage by : Jessica Gordon Nembhard
Download or read book Collective Courage written by Jessica Gordon Nembhard and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2015-06-13 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Collective Courage, Jessica Gordon Nembhard chronicles African American cooperative business ownership and its place in the movements for Black civil rights and economic equality. Not since W. E. B. Du Bois’s 1907 Economic Co-operation Among Negro Americans has there been a full-length, nationwide study of African American cooperatives. Collective Courage extends that story into the twenty-first century. Many of the players are well known in the history of the African American experience: Du Bois, A. Philip Randolph and the Ladies' Auxiliary to the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, Nannie Helen Burroughs, Fannie Lou Hamer, Ella Jo Baker, George Schuyler and the Young Negroes’ Co-operative League, the Nation of Islam, and the Black Panther Party. Adding the cooperative movement to Black history results in a retelling of the African American experience, with an increased understanding of African American collective economic agency and grassroots economic organizing. To tell the story, Gordon Nembhard uses a variety of newspapers, period magazines, and journals; co-ops’ articles of incorporation, minutes from annual meetings, newsletters, budgets, and income statements; and scholarly books, memoirs, and biographies. These sources reveal the achievements and challenges of Black co-ops, collective economic action, and social entrepreneurship. Gordon Nembhard finds that African Americans, as well as other people of color and low-income people, have benefitted greatly from cooperative ownership and democratic economic participation throughout the nation’s history.
