Go Down, Moses!: Daily Devotions Inpsired by Old Negro Spirituals

African American spirituals are the heart of all other American music and comprise the taproot of the musical expression of the black religious experience. "Go Down, Moses!" offers 365 daily devotions and includes a suggested Scripture reading for each day as well as a short prayer. Tying into the inspiration generated by African American spirituals, each devotion highlights the Negro spirituals that for decades have helped define African American religious culture. The suggested Scripture readings take readers through the first five books of the Old Testament, plus Joshua, and the first four books of the New Testament, plus Acts and Revelation. Readers are guided through a reading of the Bible during the course of one year.
