The debate rages on aboutwhether these congregations are doing all they can to address specific challenges facing African American communities. Live Long and Prosper is a refreshing, innovative study that reaches beyond superficial understandings of the Black megachurch phenomenon in a piercing interrogation of how powerful megachurches address (or fail to address) two social crises in the Black community: HIV/AIDS andpoverty.Live Long and Prosper offers an intriguing examination of sixteen representative Black megachurches and explores some of their motivations and subsequent programmatic efforts in light of prosperity or ?health and wealth? theology. Professor Barnes makes the case that the Black megachurch is a complex, contemporary model of the historic Black church in response to globalism, consumerism, secularism, religious syncretism, and the realities of race. She contends that many of these megachurches hold unique characteristics of adaptability and innovation that position them well to tackle difficult social issues. Prosperity theology emphasizes two characteristics?physical health and economic wealth?as examples of godly living and faith. This book considers whether and how efforts to address HIV/AIDS (a ?health? issue) and poverty (a ?wealth? issue) are influenced by church and clergy profiles; theology, in general; and prosperity theology, in particular. Frame analysis informs this mixed-methodological study to compare and contrast experiences, theological beliefs, pastoral profiles, and programs.Live Long and Prosper is a must-read for general readers, academics, and students alike?indeed, anyone interested in the contemporary Black megachurch?s response to social problems and the link between theology and social action. It is at once a fascinating, readable narrative and a rich piece of scholarship complete withextensively documented endnotes, statistics, informative charts and tables, and an exhaustive bibliography. 606 $aAfrican Americans$xReligion 606 $aBig churches 606 $aAfrican American churches 606 $aBlack theology 606 $aPoverty$xReligious aspects$xChristianity 606 $aChurch work with the poor 606 $aAIDS (Disease)$xReligious aspects$xChristianity 606 $aChurch work with the sick 606 $aFaith movement (Hagin) 615 0$aAfrican Americans$xReligion. 615 0$aBig churches. 615 0$aAfrican American churches. 615 0$aBlack theology. 615 0$aPoverty$xReligious aspects$xChristianity. 615 0$aChurch work with the poor. 615 0$aAIDS (Disease)$xReligious aspects$xChristianity. 615 0$aChurch work with the sick. 615 0$aFaith movement (Hagin) 676 $a277.3/08308996073 700 $aBarnes$b Sandra L$01111403 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910957708803321 996 $aLive long and prosper$94391907 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03771nam 22007575 450 001 9910349420303321 005 20251225202159.0 010 $a9783319917160 010 $a3319917161 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-319-91716-0 035 $a(CKB)4100000005323297 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-319-91716-0 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC6285143 035 $a(PPN)22950213X 035 $a(EXLCZ)994100000005323297 100 $a20180604d2018 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurnn|008mamaa 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aHCI in Business, Government, and Organizations $e5th International Conference, HCIBGO 2018, Held as Part of HCI International 2018, Las Vegas, NV, USA, July 15-20, 2018, Proceedings /$fedited by Fiona Fui-Hoon Nah, Bo Sophia Xiao 205 $a1st ed. 2018. 210 1$aCham :$cSpringer International Publishing :$cImprint: Springer,$d2018. 215 $a1 online resource (XX, 780 p. 218 illus.) 225 1 $aInformation Systems and Applications, incl.
