The Audacity To Endure: Finding the Emancipation in Hope through Faith - Paperback

by Veronica Parker (Author)

On the eve of the American Revolution in 1775, little is spoken or written about the emancipation of Africans and African Americans. Nine years later, the Jews in France would also be emancipated. Both are significant and relevant to the liberties gained by the nations that had oppressed them.

A spirit of liberty was blowing not only on the land of British America, the thirteen colonies in America; there was also a similar, if not the same, spirit, igniting a burning flame on the European continent as well.

Looking through the lens of historical events, their causations and consequences, The Audacity to Endure: Finding the Emancipation in Hope through Faith bears witness to the process of validating the existence of and the various parallelism in their histories frequently unknown to humanity. From a contemporary context, some, yet not most, people know that they are a people group familiar with a history of captivity, human bondage, and most importantly, their faith-a trifecta of knowing from deep within that all circumstances were beyond anything at that time, under their control except one-their enduring faith.

Hence, the irony of the narratives of both groups whose emancipations were gained from the very nations that were fighting to receive liberty from the tyranny of the British government and the French monarchy.

The Audacity to Endure: Finding the Emancipation in Hope through Faith is their story. A brave and resilient people who, because of a thirst for liberty by those who oppressed them, sought and found the liberating source of their faith-their shared hope in God.
