Craig Keener and Glenn Usry's highly acclaimed Black Man's Religion showed in impressive detail that Christianity and Afrocentricity can go together. Now they turn to specific, nitty-gritty questions put to the black church by non-Christians:

• Is everything good in Christianity plagiarized from traditional African religions?
• Isn't it intolerant to say Christ is the only way to God?
• Is the Bible reliable?
• What about criticisms of Christianity made by the Nation of Islam?

Keener and Usry meet these and other important questions head-on, providing responses relevant to and especially for black men and women.

Craig S. Keener (Ph.D., Duke University) is professor of New Testament at Asbury Theological Seminary. Some of his 12 books include . . . And Marries Another (Hendrickson), Paul, Women Wives (Hendrickson) and several titles published by IVP. Three of his books have won Christianity Today book awards: his commentaries on Matthew, John and the background commentary. He has close to half a million books in print.

Usry is senior pastor at Christian Outreach Church in Statesville, North Carolina.
