by Hondon B. Hargrove (Author)

We've Come This Far by Faith: The History of Trinity African Methodist Episcopal Church chronicles the journey from the founding of a global denomination (African Methodist Episcopal) in 1816 by Richard Allen, a former enslaved blacksmith, to the history and growth of a local congregation (Trinity AME Church) in Lansing, Michigan. God's providential grace, guidance, and steadfast mercy led this journey and continues today. Trinity AME Church, Lansing is an historical church, the oldest predominantly Black church in the city, and the third oldest of all churches in the city. God's blessings on the clergy and laity involved in the journey are evident. There are interesting characters and obstacles that were overcome in the growth process. To God be the glory!
