May We Meet in the Heavenly World: The Piety of Lemuel Haynes (Profiles In Reformed Spirituality)

“I rejoice to know that God has given me friends and heroes like Lemuel Haynes and Thabiti Anyabwile. I love them both. I have learned much from them. In reading this volume, I am sure you will too. Enjoy.”

“This well–chosen selection from Lemuel Haynes’s writings represents a significant part of the earliest African–American engagements with the Reformed theological tradition. In that tradition Haynes and his black contemporaries, both American and British, found a language of justice and inspiration that allowed them to criticize slavery and racial prejudice, and to offer a Christian vision of a free society. May We Meet in the Heavenly World can be recommended to students of Christian theology and of American history.”
