Why are some Black people leaving mainstream churches and joining alternative Black Bible Religions? With increasing numbers of Black Brits becoming attracted to Afroasiatic Diasporic Religions, such as Rastafari and the Holy Qubtic Church, there is an urgent need to explore the various questions, experiences and ideas of these individuals. In Black, British and De-churched, E.P. Louis argues that these trends illuminate significant gaps in mainstream UK church life where there is a failure to respond meaningfully to racism. In response to this challenge, she provides insights to challenge and support evangelism, discipleship, teaching and reconciliation in British churches. This volume features insight into how the phenomenon sits within theological and other academic discourse as well as the tools for bridge building in the community. Offering opportunities for both internal reflection within churches as well as an outward focus on the needs and hopes of people searching for the truth of the gospel, Black, British and De-Churched is an essential message for the mainstream Church.
E. P. Louis is a theologian, researcher and resource developer based in south London. She holds a PhD in Theology and Religion from Canterbury Christ Church University. Her research focuses are Black Bible-reading Religions developing material to support Christian apologetics and methods of decolonization for Christians and Churches in Britain. She has worked as an academic consultant conducting research and developing resources around areas of racial justice, including for the Baptist Union of Great Britain and the Council for World Mission.
