Abstract
This study will focus on the unique call and distinctive pastoral identity of the African American pastor. Several aspects of this culturally distinctive identity will be explored through focus groups. Data will be collected from African American pastors about this particular pastoral identity and how this unique call is understood within the African American church and community. To guide this investigation, I chose the following research question: ¿What Can Be Learned Through Focus Groups With African American Pastors Using A Story-Linking Process About Discerning The Distinctive Call To Prophetic Civic Leadership While Faithfully Serving A Congregation Within The African American Pastoral Tradition?¿ The purpose of this research study was to uncover aspects of the discernment process of African American pastors who demonstrate a calling to prophetic civic leadership while continuing to serve a local congregation.
