This memoir is a searching perceptive examination of the author's 50 years of service as a preacher in the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church ministry and a scholar in the church and university. It is about how she was led into this dual profession, how she survived in it as a black woman, how social movements and changes in society impacted her life and ambitions, and most of all, how God was always working in her life over more than eight decades, enabling her to achieve his purposes for her life.In an honest and truthful tone, Yea, Lord! Moving with the Spirit strikes at the core of the religious, racial, ethnic, political, social and spiritual issues that the world faces today and offers support and encouragement for dealing with these problems. It depicts the unique experiences of one woman who encounters and breaks down barriers in these arenas as a pioneer for other women who follow her footsteps.
