The excerpt describes the book "Rebellion to Riot," highlighting the overlooked contribution of the Church to the building of Jamaica as a nation. The book covers the period between 1865 and 1999, emphasizing the Church's efforts to promote economic empowerment and education for the previously enslaved people. It suggests that the Church played a significant role behind the scenes in advocating for the implementation of necessary socio-political infrastructure to support a healthy society. Additionally, the book addresses contemporary issues, including violence and immorality, and outlines the Church's ongoing efforts to promote justice, peace, and values throughout the island.
