This compelling sermons collection explores the art and uniqueness of African-American preaching. Readers will discover the ritual drama and the processes, form and substance of black storytelling that are pivotal elements coloring African-American culture. This is an intriguing, in-depth look into a unique art form.

To fully appreciate the empowering nature inherent in black sermons, Stewart explores the four distinguishing elements that make this genre "a four-cornered universe." They are:

- Spiritual and social transformation

Stewart presents readers with some of his most captivating sermons, including:
- Let It Shine
- Advent's "Invisible" Man
- Take Off the Grave Clothes
- African-American Spirituality: The African Gift to America
