Klappentext zu „Black Fatherhood, Adoption, and Theology “
Black Fatherhood, Adoption, and Theology: A Contextual Analysis and Response is a qualitative exploration into the complex intersection of Black fatherhood, adoption, and theology. It is primarily based on the narratives of three Black adoptive fathers who formally adopted non-kinship children. The book takes a closer look at these experiences through the three dominant phases of an adoption experience and gives specific attention to the sociological, psychological, and theological dynamics at play. Ultimately, the book provides a constructive pastoral theology of adoption that sets forth guidelines of care for this population of adoptive fathers as well as others with an experience of adoption.

Pressezitat
«Michael Lee Cook's book provides significant research needed to add additional understanding of some Black men who adopt children. It helped me recall the period of time when I was a visiting parent along with my wife of a young Black child who visited us on weekends throughout high school and college. We were recruited to this role by a church related Children's Home. Since we had no children, this added an additional dimension to our lives. I did experience myself as a significant Black male whose presence was essential if our visiting son was to grow up into a productive adult male. Indeed, my voice and presence were essential for him to thrive and develop. I recommend this book for those who need to know what the rewards as well as the potential pitfalls of becoming adoptive parents are.» (Edward P. Wimberly, Interdenominational Theological Center)
