"At long last, after over a decade of prompting, cajoling, and exhorting my friend to write down his wisdom and knowledge, we now finally have this book. I believe that this book will become an essential text for theological educators and pastoral practitioners across the UK. This is a book for which many of us have been waiting. I am delighted. I know that many people will soon agree with me!"

Anthony Reddie, Regent's Park College, Oxford

«'A brilliant, forthright historically and psychosocially penetrating account of Black people's experience in Britain, A Redemption Song is not just a must read but truly a "must study" for all who recognize the need for the care of all persons in whatever national context they find themselves. Deftly interwoven with Christological and Eucharistic theological themes that engage the horrors of enslavement and the ongoing experience of racism in the United Kingdom, Delroy Hall's Black British Pastoral Theology gives us all pathways to the development of a more honest and just social and political existence.'»

Emmanuel Lartey, Candler School of Theology

«This is a ground-breaking and much anticipated book within multiple spaces. Dr Hall brings to this reflection deep insights and extensive experiences as a British Black theologian, a psychotherapist, and a pastor and provides one of the first attempts at articulating what a Black British Pastoral Theology might look like. This penetrating work challenges the lack of psychological attention to black experiences within not only theological, but also psychotherapeutic spaces. This is the kind of book that can spark a trajectory for further research and reflection, making conscious and therefore addressing the often veiled processes that hinder Black flourishing.»
