Practical Virtues Readings, Sermons, Prayers, and Hymns for the African American Family

As pastors of one of New York City's largest churches, Reverend Floyd Flake and his wife, Reverend M. Elaine McCollins Flake, are frequently sought after by those in need of guidance. Throughout their ministry, the Flakes have drawn from a distinguished array of stories, letters, hymns, narratives, and poems -- from James Baldwin and Maya Angelou to Arthur Ashe and Colin Powell -- to inspire families to live ethically in an often unethical world. Now, with Practical Virtues, they've gathered their favorites into a single, indispensable collection, paired with spiritual exercises for the soul.Flake, Floyd H. is the author of 'Practical Virtues Readings, Sermons, Prayers, and Hymns for the African American Family', published 2004 under ISBN 9780060090616 and ISBN 0060090618.
