Seller's Description:
Very good in Very good jacket. xxv, [1], 404, [4] pages. Illustrations. Inscribed by the author on the fep. Inscription reads Nov. 7, 2019 To My Doctor Bloom God Bless! Rev. Veazey. Forewords by Rev. Dr. Jeremiah A. Wright, Jr., and Rev. Dr. John W. Kinney, Reverend Veazey (1936-2021) spent 64 years in the ministry, 55 years as a pastor, and is the third generation minister. His grandfather, the Rev. George Franklin Veazey, who was born into slavery in 1860, established his first church in Arkabutla, MS in 1890. Reverend Carlton Veazey was educated in the public schools of Memphis and graduated with honors from Booker T. Washington High School in 1954. He entered the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff where he received scholarships in both voice and instrumental music. After more than 35 years, Rev. Veazey left Zion, and in 1994 became the Founding Pastor of Fellowship Baptist Church in the District. After retirement from Fellowship Baptist Church following 22 years of service, Reverend Veazey completed one of his longtime goals-he wrote his book, Pilgrimage In Clay Feet, an autobiography which spans his life from his early years to his retirement. The author shares testimony from his pilgrimage through life and relates memories of important people and events that helped shape his sense of faith. He reflects on his time in the church, which includes sixty-two years in ministry and fifty-five years in pastorate. He also shares the trials he went through and their valuable lessons and reflects on what he feels to be some faulty theology the church has embraced. The author looks back on his trials and tribulations. Jeremiah Alvesta Wright Jr. (born September 22, 1941) is a pastor emeritus of Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago, a congregation he led for 36 years, during which its membership grew to over 8, 000 parishioners. Following retirement, his beliefs and preaching were scrutinized when segments of his sermons about terrorist attacks on the United States and government dishonesty were publicized in connection with the 2008 presidential campaign of Barack Obama. Wright became pastor of the Trinity United Church of Christ, Chicago on March 1, 1971; it had some 250 members on its rolls, but only about 90 or so were actually attending worship by that time. By March 2008 Trinity United Church of Christ had become the largest church in the mostly white United Church of Christ denomination. Trinity and Wright were profiled by correspondent Roger Wilkins in Sherry Jones's documentary Keeping the Faith broadcast as the June 16, 1987, episode of the PBS series Frontline with Judy Woodruff. In 1995, Wright was asked to deliver a prayer during an afternoon session of speeches at the Million Man March in Washington, DC. Wright, who began the "Ministers in Training" program at Trinity United Church of Christ, has been a national leader in promoting theological education and the preparation of seminarians for the African-American church. The church's mission statement is based upon systematized black theology. John Kinney has devoted himself to the pursuit of excellence in theological training and ministerial preparation and has distinguished himself as a systematic theologian, academician and administrator in a career that spans more than 40 years. This includes 27 years of service to Virginia Union University as Dean of the Samuel DeWitt Proctor School of Theology and Senior Vice President of the university.
