Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Breaking the Chains: Embracing James Baldwin's Call for a Just Church is a bold theological work that places the prophetic fire of James Baldwin in conversation with the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA). With clarity and urgency, it invites readers to reimagine what it means for… the Church to embody justice, liberation, and love in our fractured world.At the heart of this book is Baldwin himself-shaped by his Pentecostal roots in Harlem, sharpened by his prophetic critique of American hypocrisy, and sustained by his radical vision of love. Baldwin's witness challenges the ELCA to confront its own history of racial inequity, Eurocentrism, and theological silence, calling for a reformation that is as much about ethics and inclusion as it is about doctrine and liturgy.Through the lens of Baldwin's life and writings, Breaking the Chains explores seven interwoven themes: Justice: Confronting racism, systemic sin, and institutional complacency with the truth-telling urgency Baldwin demanded.Liberation: Embracing a vision of the Church that sets free both the oppressed and the institutions bound by fear and exclusion.Pentecostal Fire: Reclaiming Baldwin's early preaching voice as a model for Spirit-filled urgency and bold proclamation in today's Church.Baldwin as Prophet: Recognizing Baldwin not only as a literary figure but as a modern prophet whose words echo the cries of Scripture.Reformation: Extending the Lutheran heritage of reform into the present moment-where repentance, repair, and renewal are essential.Prophetic Witness: Equipping the Church to speak uncomfortable truths with courage, even when it means confronting its own failures.Inclusion: Moving beyond token diversity toward radical welcome and full affirmation of all God's children across race, gender, and sexuality.Far more than a work of historical reflection, this book is a summons. It asks: What kind of Church will rise from the ashes of complicity and silence? Can Baldwin's fiery call awaken the ELCA and other mainline denominations to live into their deepest baptismal promises?Written for pastors, seminarians, lay leaders, and all who hunger for a just and living Church, Breaking the Chains is both critique and invitation. It is a vision of the Church not as it is-but as it must become: prophetic, Spirit-filled, inclusive, and free. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
