In this episode of the Vanderbloemen Leadership Podcast, we continue our Black History Month series exploring the history, evolution, and culture of the Black Church. In part one of this series, Vanderbloemen’s own, Chantel McHenry, speaks with Dr. Eric M. Washington, Associate Professor of History and Director of African Studies at Calvin University.
They discuss:
- The pre-slavery origins of The Black Church, including the work of missionaries in Africa from 1750-1850.
- The role of early African religions and how missionaries engaged with them.
- How these historical events tie into the work of modern-day mission efforts.
This conversation provides valuable insights into the lesser-known details of Christianity’s spread in Africa and offers a deeper understanding of The Black Church’s history.
