Allow me to call myself as a disciple of Jesus Christ and a member of the body to introduce the faithful followers of The Way (Jesus Christ).

I was interested in the topic before I was aware of the discipline. Before it was introduced, and are not described on the theme of this document. In the first over 1990x
'01 '02 Or I ran into a little library in south MPLS. Even if you know there are more
when I found twosmall paperback books written by Black Baptist minister. The Book 1
"Beyond Roots" by Rev. William Dwight Sr. Mckissic addressed the "search for blacks in the Bible."
The 2nd book "What color is Jesus" by Rev. William Mosley, who "treats you when and why
Image among Europeans? And what effect does a white image of Christ had on black
People all over the world "?

After reading these two little paperbacks, I felt like I had liberated from the cultural Slavery
of psychological slavery. I want to read more more, I almost lost interest in reading something
but similar letters on Black Bible studies. Now there were other books available
Sales could go together, I find nothing in the public library in Hennepin County. I was desperate for more writing. It is not an avid reader, do not come to me to check the bibliography until some time later. And behold, I have dozens of> African Americans were written by theologians. Now, even though I was raised Baptist Church Black I do not always remember the words of theologians, black theologians certainly not black and authoring books on theology.

Born again is always a statement that the new believers in Jesus Christ has been called, but for the 1st time I experienced as a new born again, through the introduction of these two paperbacks that had only 70Pages of each book.

The whole world was aware of my research in this area, opened after the title subject of this letter.

I'm starting to seminars can be found in the United States, large and small colleges and universities where these were Biblical scholars and historians of the subject have been used orcurrently employed. I started and e-mail these people and here I was black-owned bookstores and publishing houses known throughout the country. What a revelation to behold. I begin to write any books that I could ask for more titles that deal with the problem. It 'been so encouraging that I addressed to the Secretary of State of Minnesota must register for choosing my new company. I called my new name: "The presence of Africans in theBible Book Center. "

I did not say the library, because I have only programmed the author of two books of every purchase, so you get the% discount bulk of about 30 I felt like a child to go with twenty dollars in a candy shoppe. I bought so many books that I had to remove huse, furniture, books to make my room for. Today I have over 5,000 dollars worth of my collection. Although the field is more popular, I have morebooks by title, most libraries as found in the seminaries, libraries and public safety.
