|aWhat is the proper place of the Bible in Black Churches? Baker-Fletcher explores the Bible asa uniquely authoritative text within the context of Black church worship and service to the world. He analyzes the Bible's central role in three forms of witness: translation, proclamation, and empowerment. Trusting that the Bible is authentically "God's Word" that uses human language, Baker-Fletcher affirms the uniqueness of the Bible in the church's multiple tasks of preaching, teaching, and prophetic ministries.Finally, finding proverbial wisdom in rap music, the book concludes with a case study of the book of Romans.
