Free Indeed: Heroes of Black Christian History

Free Indeed by Mark Sidwell is a history of black American church leaders. In addition to the challenges that normally confront heralds of the gospel, African American Christians also faced slavery and racial discrimination. Their deep love for Christ and their fellow believers and their passion for the lost made them dauntless soldiers for the Lord, proclaiming the way of salvation and the equality of all men and women in God’s sight. This tribute to these heroes of black Christian history resonates with faith and heroism from the Great Awakening to the Civil War and its aftermath to the early Civil Rights Movement.
