Book Synopsis Crucible of Faith and Freedom by : Bruce T. Gourley
Book excerpt: Suspended precariously in the middle of this epic struggle is freedom itself. Yet only one God can prevail: either the creator of a new future envisioned by an enslaved people and their Northern allies, or the lord of a dark past to which white Southerners are fiercely devoted. For Baptists, the dividing line runs right through the Bible. Southern biblical conservatism is firmly rooted in America's racist past, while a future of racial equality hinges upon a newer understanding of Accoscriptural interpretation unfettered by the chains of biblical literalism.
