Title: New faith
First published: 2000
Description: "Sheron Patterson argues that African American Christian women need "New Faith" for their personal survival and revival. Grounded in a sturdy faith in Jesus Christ, she turns the clear light of Black women's religious insights on churches, mothers, brothers, fathers, and - most of all - on Black Christian women themselves. Passionately and poignantly she urges women to seek a better existence for themselves by eradicating unnecessary suffering and implementing corrective love in their lives.

New Faith, she says, helps to identify and address the religious and social negatives that historically have impeded Black women from nurturing their own growth."--BOOK JACKET.
