About The Book
Go Preach connects the apocalyptic message of Mark’s Gospel to principles and programs of socio-cultural transformation in the life of the Black church today. Brian Blount begins his study of Mark by examining the social significance of Jesus’ proclamation of the coming Kingdom of God. This was a future event that was at the same time breaking through in the present. Through Jesus, “God’s future power invaded and transformed the human present.” This experience of the Kingdom empowered the disciples to “Go preach” the Kingdom message in word and deed, to finish the story that Marks narration about Jesus began.
Blount goes on to show that the Black church occupies a situation analogous to that in which the Gospel arose, and explores the implications of apocalyptic theology for the pastoral mission of the Black church today. Go Preach makes an important contribution to understanding the meaning of the Kingdom of God. At the same time it also demonstrates the value of a sociolinguistic approach to scripture, both in interpreting the text in its original context and in unpacking its meaning for today. It is required reading for biblical scholars, students, and clergy.
