Kincraft is a rich, rewarding, intellectually challenging ethnographic study of a community of Afro-Caribbean churchgoers, in the Atlanta area, who were historically associated with the Plymouth Brethren. . . . Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through faculty., Challenging taken-for-granted suppositions about the ties between race and religion and the forms of Black Christianity that come to matter in African-American and Afro-Caribbean expressions of faith, Todne Thomas powerfully articulates a mode of 'kincraft' that redefines everyday and existential notions of familiality, religiosity, spatialization, and political community. To engage with her work is to completely reimagine what the anthropology of religion--and the very anthropological project itself--should be. An incredibly important contribution., Todne Thomas tells a big story about the lived experience of navigating multiple identities and creating meaningful purpose within a community, complicating and refuting racialized narratives of evangelicalism and narrow interpretations of black identity politics in the process. She effectively shows what it means to be a black evangelical., Challenging taken-for-granted suppositions about the ties between race and religion and the forms of Black Christianity that come to matter in African American and Afro-Caribbean expressions of faith, Todne Thomas powerfully articulates a mode of 'kincraft' that redefines everyday and existential notions of familiality, religiosity, spatialization, and political community. To engage with her work is to completely reimagine what the anthropology of religion--and the very anthropological project itself--should be. An incredibly important contribution., Some books serve notice to the academy that it needs to rethink its approaches. Todne Thomas's Kincraft is such a book which will reshape the field of African American religious studies in profound ways., One of the fascinating tensions Thomas conveys is between Black evangelicals' theological reckoning with racial struggles and a commitment to prioritize 'Christian family' over 'worldly' concerns (p. 53). The ethnographic material is robustly presented, complemented by a revealing archival analysis of the founding evangelist's ministry career. . . . [A] powerful testimony to how centrally racialization figures in the formation and lived expression of the varieties of US evangelicalism., Kincraft is an exemplar of ethnographic research and writing. Thomas is meticulous in her approach, thoughtfully weaving ethnographic details and scholarly analysis with depth and precision., Kincraft illustrates how Black evangelicals in the United States, drawing on their own Afro-diasporic orientations and sacred imaginaries, have worked to create their own mechanisms of spiritual and relational belonging against the fixed racial and social positionalities reinscribed by White evangelical culture. Moreover, Thomas' exploration of the spiritual and racial kinship endemic to kincraft can and should be read furthermore as an example of Africana religious agency., Kincraft is a refreshing inclusion as a source for studying US religious history and culture. . . . Thomas shows how Black religious actors have tapped into their religious tradition to create meaningful communities and a sense of belonging that is unmoved by the racism of the broader evangelical movement., Kincraft reorients the ways we think about how religion manifests in people's daily lives at both institutional and interpersonal levels. Thomas' work reminds scholars how important it is to account for both ethno-racial and denominational differences when analyzing religious groups and behaviors, and what is overlooked when we do not., Kincraft is an intimate, revealing portrayal of the inner workings of a biblical community. . . . [T]his is an intellectually stimulating, rigorous, and important work that reveals the deeper spirituality of a church tradition that has been largely overlooked in both Black church and white evangelical circles. Thomas has done an excellent job of bringing this tradition to the foreground and, in so doing, forcing a timely reconsideration of what we define and understand as the Black church and mainstream evangelicalism.

Synopsis
Todne Thomas explores the internal dynamics of community life among black evangelicals and the ways the create spiritual relationships through the practice of kincraft--the construction of one another as brothers and sisters in Christ, partners in prayer, and spiritual mothers, fathers, and children., In Kincraft Todne Thomas explores the internal dynamics of community life among black evangelicals, who are often overshadowed by white evangelicals and the common equation of the "Black Church" with an Afro-Protestant mainline. Drawing on fieldwork in an Afro-Caribbean and African American church association in Atlanta, Thomas locates black evangelicals at the center of their own religious story, presenting their determined spiritual relatedness as a form of insurgency. She outlines how church members cocreate themselves as spiritual kin through what she calls kincraft--the construction of one another as brothers and sisters in Christ. Kincraft, which Thomas traces back to the diasporic histories and migration experiences of church members, reflects black evangelicals' understanding of Christian familial connection as transcending racial, ethnic, and denominational boundaries in ways that go beyond the patriarchal nuclear family. Church members also use their spiritual relationships to navigate racial and ethnic discrimination within the majority-white evangelical movement. By charting kincraft's functions and significance, Thomas demonstrates the ways in which black evangelical social life is more varied and multidimensional than standard narratives of evangelicalism would otherwise suggest.
