[Online] Dean Powery Gives Howard Thurman Lecture for the Candler School of Theology

Chapel Dean Luke A. Powery will give this year's Howard Thurman Lecture for the Candler School of Theology at Emory University. The online lecture, titled “A Homiletical Sankofa: The Spirituals and the Future of Ministry,” will focus on the Black church’s vital practices of music and preaching, exploring spirituals as musical sermons in the Spirit that can serve as a critical resource for reflecting on and moving forward into the future of ministry. The lecture is sponsored by Candler’s Black Church Studies program, which is celebrating its thirtieth anniversary this year. This online event is free and open to the public, and registration is required.
