Throughout this course you will learn about African American spirituality and the ministry of prayer, spiritual direction, and soul care through the lenses of ten African American spiritual leaders. You will look at how prayer, spiritual direction, and soul care were essential to the lives of these spiritual leaders and how they used these disciplines to move through trying and difficult times.
