This is the first and only book to explore ministering and preaching to one of the fastest growing segments of our society, the black middle class. In the theological tradition of the black church that celebrates 'preached theology,' author Marvin McMickle preaches to both pastors and black middle-class churches and to members of the black middle class. He demonstrates how ministers can develop sermons and programs that speak to the 'two separate congregations' that coexist in their pews--middle class commuters and the underclass residents of the immediate neighborhood.
