Black church is truly the heart of the African-American community. In fact, you
may say that it is the community. Throughout all of our struggles in American
history, the Black church has been a constant in our evolution. It fed our hope

bombings and burnings, it stands strong, "steadfast and unmovable." With the
good news of Jesus Christ, it is a beacon of light that shines on all those who

community's economic growth as well. There is no greater or more powerful institution
that exists today for any group of people than that of the Black church.
