In this talk, Thabiti Anyabwile narrows the broad subject of African-American theology down to "Big God Theology" -- a yearning that has existed in the African-American church historically for a big God. He encapsulates the theological reflections of African-Americans as they have thought about God in their particular sojourn. Unpacking the theology of the African-American Christian experience, Thabiti argues that there are five particular ways African-Americans have understood God. That is that God is Bigger than suffering, injustice, history, race, and complexity.
