My People Yesterday, Today and Forever: a History of the Glorious Church of God in Christ

My People Yesterday, Today and Forever In these pages is told the true story how, in a period of a little over fifties years a group of ex-slave children and their children from Southern West Virginia would walk over to the white communities in their given cities, alone with many other African Americans all over the east coast and point out the homes they were going to move into once their leader was to take over the world from Addis Abba, Ethiopia at a given day and hour in 1921. Only to have their hopes and dreams shattered upon hearing of his tragic death. Fascinating and likewise important is how most were able to regather and force to reconcile with the truths of the Christian faith and establish their own organization form, known as the Glorious Church of God in Christ. Thus, flushing and gaining respect among African American and White churches though out the middle west and east coast of the United State. Only to suffer a split in the mid-fifties, were they were forced this time to depend on the white courts for there very survival in which had rejected thirty years ago. All they have never fully recovered, they are still in the land of the living among the giants.
