More about the book
Focusing on a prominent African-American holiness church in early twentieth-century Jackson, Mississippi, this volume highlights the challenges faced by the congregation and its pastor, Charles Price Jones. Through a rich selection of primary documents, readers gain insight into the church's struggle against Jim Crow racism and internal conflicts regarding Christian piety and social aspirations. Amid these pressures, the community strives to maintain its identity and worship Jesus in a manner that reflects its beliefs and values.
