Reviews

A creative, compelling, and nuanced contribution to the flourishing of black men. Placing blackness at the center of mental health, Grier draws on the words and experiences of black men to demonstrate how care and counseling can promote lives unlimited--and unstrained--by racism, sexism, heteronormativity, homophobia, classism, and religious bigotry.--Duane R. Bidwell, Claremont School of Theology Nicholas Grier has written a critically important addition to the fields of spiritual care and pastoral theology concerning the care of Black men with his Hope to Keep Going framework. Grounded in current research, his thoroughgoing scholarly yet sensitive approach, using qualitative inquiry as his methodology, affords the practitioner or researcher a wealth of nuanced data from interviews with Black men regarding their lived experiences. This is a much-needed resource for those of us who care about Black men!--Marsha Foster Boyd, president emerita of Ecumenical Theological Seminary and chief catalyst of Catalyst Connections Global LLC
