This practical theology model was developed to nurture black youth and counteract the effects of poverty, racism, and nihilism in the church. The setting was Oak Chapel African Methodist Episcopal Church. Seven theme sermons on the attributes of God were provided to provide a spiritual foundation for the church family. Seven African style intergenerational Bible studies were created to facilitate the healing, sustaining, guiding, and reconciling of Jesus within the church family. The implementation of this holistic model over seven months from June through December of 2010 resulted in enhanced confidence, spiritual growth, and maturity among the youth.
