Principles and Practices of African American Spirituality, traces the evolution, development, and practices of a large segment of African American Spiritual life, found within the Black Church. It seeks to provide a road map and link to traditions that made for highly evolved Spiritual Beings, while at the same time embraces the cultural legacy of African Americans, that is near and dear to this group of people.

Dr. Baker is also the author of A Dreamer's Journey, and African American Spirituality Thought & Culture. She is soon to publish the book, The Sociology of Art, Religion and Culture.
