How many reformed African American leaders do you know? Be honest. Drawing a blank? There are not many in our communities nor in the mainstream. We believe there are many of God’s elect in these false churches. Unfortunately in our African American churches they are learning how to eisegete rather than exegete the text. Therefore the goal of this ministry is to help African Americans who are coming out of unhealthy churches. We will provide Church Directories, Articles, Book Recommendations and a place where people can be open and share their journey to the glory of God. Unlike other websites, our primary goal is not to expose false teaching, though we will at times, our primary goal is to help point people to the Messiah through the resources mentioned above. One of the greatest struggle for black Christians is finding a good church. Usually this means we have to sit under white leadership, unless you are lucky enough to be in a location where there are solid black pastors. We will recommend you leave a church that is not striving and toiling to meet the 9 marks of a healthy church. We will not sugar coat the gospel and we are not looking for width, but depth. So in short, the goal of this ministry is to provide African Americans (not exclusively but primarily) with the resources necessary to be effective ministers of the Gospel. Please pray for us as Tyris and I both mature and pray that we would be faithful ministers of the Gospel

Grace & Peace Mr. Lionel Woods,
I enjoy your website/blog and affirm your mission and purpose of your site.
Iam a Reformed Evangelical Christian - wondering what about the “Latino/Hispanic Reformed Christian Community”.
Where are the Latino/Hispanic Reformed Christian Ministers and Scholars? We also need a book entitle “Being Latino and Reformed”!?
There are many Latino/Hispanic christians in unhealthy churches - lack of sound biblical and theological teachings.
The Latino/Hispanic Christian Community are in deep need of Reformed Biblical Theology!
By His Grace,

Hey brother, I can’t speak for that community at all. I am sorry that I don’t know much about it; however, your are free to say Latino and Reformed Ministries and we will be with you. I don’t know of many Latino Word of Faith preachers or who theology effects your community. Let me know if I can be of any help.
