With the world's eyes on Jackie Robinson, there were not many who noticed the sportswriter who traveled by the baseball star's side in 1946-47. Wendell Smith was a pioneer not only in writing, but in broadcast media as well, with a career that spanned 1937-1972 and included more than 1,500 written pieces. After an extensive biographical sketch, this work presents a collection of Smith's writings. Chapters are organized to present him as one who chronicled Black history, traveled extensively, challenged racism, noted progress in racial relations, criticized friends, praised enemies, and bid farewell to notable figures who passed before him. Black athletes covered in his writings include Jackie Robinson, Muhammad Ali, Joe Louis, Jesse Owens, Ernie Banks, and many more. When necessary, the editor provides commentary to provide context or illustrate key points.
In Ephesians, Paul said, And He gave some as apostles, and some as prophets, and some as evangelists, and some as pastors and teachers (Eph. 4:11). From this verse we understand that being a pastor and teacher is a gift from God. Becoming a pastor is not done when a person so desires, but when he is given the Gift of the Pastorate. This book is being written especially for those who are being called into the pastorate. I hope that this book will benefit young pastors, or even experienced pastors, who may not have had the benefit of a wise counselor. The basic purpose of the book is to explain the calling, preparation, and role of a pastor. I also think that this book could help church members understand the role of a pastor and what being a pastor entails.
