Hayes\u003c\/b\u003e, a leading commentator and forger of womanist thought, especially in the black Catholic setting, here offers strong brew for what ails the church, the Christian tradition, and the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHayes specifically shows how womanist commitments in the Christian tradition provide a specific critical lens for seeing the strengths and weaknesses of a Christianity that has often flourished at the expense of or neglect of African Americans. As sometime strangers and sojourners in their own church, black women have a unique take on the church's stance on race, class, and gender issues. Yet their unquestioned devotion lends a hope and optimism often missing from critical thought and, as Hayes shows in this powerful volume, invites the church itself to a new conversion and role. Her book unfolds in four parts: Introduction: Standing in the Shoes My Mother Made\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart 1: Faith and Worship\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart 2: Ministry and Social Justice\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart 3: The Public Face of Faith\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart 4: A Womanist Faith Challenge\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Diana L.
