초록/해제  
요약 : The purpose of this dissertation is to clarify the definition of fragmented spirituality and to present a three part practical theological analysis of fragmented spirituality among African American adolescents. Fragmented spirituality occurs when a person's deeply held religious beliefs are separated from other critical issues or areas of their life; such as a belief in a personally transformative and protective God and experiences of racism where one never names God as working or calling one to work to end racism.
초록/해제  
요약 : This dissertation attends to the on-the-ground realities of African American youth and African American churches through semi-structured interviews and surveys with a sample of African American Christian adolescents. The data outline their understandings of their spirituality and its connections to their identity and communal engagement. This section also explores the formal teachings of African American churches through an analysis of Urban Ministries, Inc. curriculum and sermons from a national sample of African American churches.
초록/해제  
요약 : In the second section, this dissertation explores a larger conversation about the connection of religion to American public life. It explores the ways that fragmentation in African American adolescent spirituality can be a "symptom" of trends in the broader American context towards individualism and separation of religion and civic engagement. This conversation highlights the psychological, sociological and theological dimensions of fragmentation. In this section, I also name alternatives to the problematic effects of fragmentation: These alternatives emerge from the historical and theological legacy of African American churches, Womanist Spirituality, and Black Liberation theologies.
초록/해제  
요약 : In the third and final section, I continue the exploration of alternatives to fragmented spirituality and offer pedagogical strategies for fostering an integrated-integrating spirituality---spirituality that empowers youth to hold together the seemingly disparate arenas of their lives, to tap into the resources of their faith communities and learn from historical and current faith exemplars, in order to see themselves as capable of affecting change on individual, communal, and societal levels. These strategies include tapping into the spiritual disciplines and worship practices of African American churches and pushing youth to embrace critical reflection and transformative action as essential religious practices.
