Do you find yourself wondering are you the only one who wrestles with self-doubt, difficult people, and challenging circumstances? If you have answered "yes" to these questions then "By the Grace of God"is written with you in mind. This book shares the significant highs and lows that I have encountered in reaching my 25th year of Pastoring Black Baptists. Especially, those who have never Pastored Black Baptist may think that the title is too racists. However, I would argue that even though there is a significant amount of common ground among Blacks, Whites, Hispanics, Baptists, Pentecostal, and Methodists, each group has some significant differences. "By the Grace of God" is my story of regarding Black Baptists.
