Not Forsaken Growing up Black Male and Christian in the Hood encapsulates principles author Chris McNair gleaned from successfully working with atrisk African American boys in the inner city in over thirty years of ministry. This book teaches how youth workers can address social emotional physical and spiritual issues facing young black men in the city. It is about building a relational ministry among black youth centered on instilling a sense of identity in Christ and provides a study curriculum to use with the young men themselves. In addition to indepth content from the Leader Guide the study sessions contains everything needed to begin to equip leaders and guide a group through the study including session plans activities and discussion questions. In the thirty years I have known Rev. Chris McNair he has always been hanging out with urban black males that no other youth serving organization or ministry seems able to connect with. By building longterm relationships with the most atrisk city youth McNair engenders trust and creates possibilities for redemption.

This is a must read for anyone who cares about the future of our cities.
