Black on White Michael Adi Nachman

Any Charismatic Christian who reads these poems and prayers should be blessed. The poems on racism and dealing with identity issue should jerk my white Christian brothers and sisters to attention. The poems on abortion should have a similar affect on society as a whole. Most of the material here was written between 1981 and 1989 that is from when I was 16 to 24 years old. I was young and in some cases backslidden and angry with the Church. The racism I experienced as I grew up was real and was inside the Church and outside the Church. Finding who I was and to what I belonged was no easy task, but in all these challenges the Holy Spirit was the real helper and healer. So the prayers kept me sane. My sister almost went insane because of the racial conflicts she experience as a social worker among black and white social workers. Here is one solution to racism: The identity of the believer in the risen Messiah.
