description: The book focuses on Bishop Reverdy Ransom of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, a historically significant figure whose life and work provide a much fairer view of the richness of black religious life in the second quarter of the twentieth century than has heretofore been available. Making the Gospel Plain is a unique collection of Ransom's writings that are presently out of print or little known.After outlining Ransom's life and involvements, the book moves into the actual sermons and speeches, articles and editorials, and pamphlets and excerpts from his books. Explanatory notes are included where necessary.
