MEDIA ADVISORY, Aug. 22 /Christian Newswire/ -- Author Dr. Peggy Elliott has released a ground-breaking work, Finding Our True Freedom: How to bring healing to the broken hearts of African-Americans. Elliott gets to the heart of much that threatens to paralyze the African-American community.
Best known for her time as a revivalist, author and teacher, Elliott has partnered with BIG Picture Media Group, Inc. to publish her latest project, striving to cut across racial boundaries.
Finding Our True Freedom illustrates Elliott's ability to not only identify the cultural and personal challenges African-American's face daily, but also provide solutions. "Somewhere and somehow, things have gone awry for my people," writes Elliott. "After watching another news report citing the significant increase in black-on-black crimes, I felt compelled to ask God what has happened."
Elliott charts the course with biblical history, breaking the myth African-American concerns began with slavery. "Our problems began in Egypt, when we were pharaohs, kings, queens, wise men and women, architects, mathematicians and engineers," says Elliott. "Though we were blessed, we took our eyes off of the Lord and began to live as though material things and immorality was our god."
Brilliantly preparing the reader for what is to come, Dr. Alveda King, niece of civil rights leader Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., says communities are misinformed believing healing comes by eliminating racism. "Yet, American must face the truth," writes King in the foreword. "Abortion and racism are tied together. We cannot end one without ending the other."
The refreshing aspect about this book is that it goes against the political correctness of the day. Elliott eloquently weaves together both biblical insights and cultural realities.
"Dr. Elliott's book is a bold and liberating tool, designed to illuminate minds and hearts and to do as Jesus taught us, to 'set the captives free.' It is time for us all to find our true freedom," writes King.
