In the first full-length scholarly synthesis of the African American Churches of Christ, Edward J. Robinson provides a comprehensive look at the church's improbable development against a backdrop of African American oppression. The journey begins with a lesser known preacher, F. F. Carson, in many ways a forerunner in the struggles and triumphs awaiting the preachers and lay people in the congregations to come. Robinson then builds on scholarship treating well-known figures, including Marshall Keeble and G. P. Bowser, to present a wide-ranging history of African American Churches of Christ from their beginnings--when enslaved people embraced the nascent Stone-Campbell Christian Movement even though founder Alexander Campbell himself favored slavery. The author moves on to examine how the churches grew under the leadership of S. R. Cassius, even as Jim Crow restrictions put extreme pressure on organizations of any kind among African Americans. Robinson's well-researched narrative treats not only the black male leaders of the church, but also women leaders, such as Annie C. Tuggle, as well as notable activities of the church, including music, education, and global evangelism, thus painting a complete picture of African American Churches of Christ. Through scholarship and compelling storytelling, Robinson tells the two-hundred-year tale of how "black believers survived and thrived on the discarded 'scraps' of America, forging their own identity, fashioning their own lofty ecclesiology and 'hard' theology, and creating their own papers, lectureships, liturgy, and congregations." A groundbreaking exploration by a seasoned scholar in American religion, Hard-Fighting Soldiers is sure to become the standard text for anyone researching the African American Churches of Christ.

...The result of over a decade of research.... This is a groundbreaking study that will be a jumping off point for work on Churches of Christ for many years to come. Dr. Douglas A. Foster, Assistant Professor of Church History, Abilene Christian University ...An important book, carefully researched and written, and badly needed by our brotherhood.... I am delighted that it is now available to everyone concerned about our past or our future. Dr. Bill Humble, Director, Center for Restoration Studies Abilene Christian University Few people are as well-read in American Church History as Hooper.... His insights into personalities and issues come from careful research. Some will shock traditionalists, others will annoy revisionists, and all will engage serious students. Dr. Rubel Shelly, Minister, Woodmont Hills Church of Christ ...A quick-paced and engaging narrative.... In its pages the reader comes to know the giants who have shaped our fellowship. I would recommend this book to all members of the church who want to understand where we are and where we are going. Gregory A. Tidwell, Minister

The Texas Connection, a history of the Church Of God In Christ, in Texas is a must have for anyone interested in a history of COGIC and various movements. These rich histories are covered from a national and a Texas focused perspective, which starts with several bands of saints looking for a better way. Among these saints were those who were born free and ex-slaves removed from slavery by only one or maybe two generations. The Texas Connection covers many historical facts of the National COGIC, the current and past jurisdictions of Texas, the districts of these Texas jurisdictions, the local churches of these districts and some of the local personalities. Many of these histories have been documented in several accounts and by word of mouth stories passed down for many generations. For the first time the Texas Connection brings together these histories, chronologically and pictorially recorded in one place. This record also brings to light the true name of the mother COGIC church in Texas, and many other little known and interesting facts. Did you know the fire for the Azusa Revivals was actually lit in Kansas? It then made its way to Houston, Texas, where it picked up Pastor W. J. Seymour and then landed in Los Angeles, California, on Azusa Street. The Texas Connection brings these histories and personalities to life chronologically and pictorially which sets it apart from other accounts and takes it to the next level of this historical journey. These histories are covered from the start to present day and will be updated every quadrennial. This version is printed in black and white. A full color version is also available.
