Methodist Church

Charles Henry Philips (1858 - 1951) was an influential bishop of the Christian (previously called "Colored") Methodist Episcopal Church. He played a critical role in the CME Church becoming a national denomination, extending its reach beyond the South. He fought to erase the stigma associated with the Church's origins in the institution of slavery.

This book gives great insight into the mind and thoughts of the early CME Church Bishops. These men lead the church between reconstruction and WWII, serving as a backbone to the working of the Church body.

A Long Reconstruction details the denomination's journey with unification and justice.
