As he approached his 100th birthday in 2021, the Reverend J. Phillips Noble reflected on his journey from segregated rural Mississippi to being a white progressive pastor in Anniston, Alabama, at the height of the 20th century civil rights movement. In Anniston, where white supremacists famously burned the Freedom Riders' bus in 1961, and committed other violence and intimidation, Noble became a voice of reconciliation and justice. He worked with local leaders, black and white, to move the community past the divisions of Jim Crow segregation. Noble served on the local interracial commission established by the city, and he formed enduring friendships with black ministers. His short reflection on this history and the role he and his family played in it is an affirming declaration of faith and fellowship.

REVEREND JAMES PHILLIPS NOBLE (1922-2022) grew up in Learned, Mississippi. After graduating from King College in Bristol, Tennessee and Columbia Theological Seminary in Decatur, Georgia, he was ordained a Presbyterian minister. He completed graduate work in Edinburgh, Scotland, and Cambridge University in England. From 1956-1971, Noble was pastor of the First Presbyterian Church in Anniston, Alabama, where the events described in this book took place. Over his career, he also served pastorates in Georgia and South Carolina, the last of which was Charleston's historic First (Scots) Presbyterian Church. Noble was also Co-President of the Board of Pensions of the Presbyterian Church, USA. He has traveled extensively on six continents. Noble was married to Betty Pope Scott. They had three children (Betty, Phil, Jr., and Scott) and two grandchildren. He was retired and living in Decatur, Georgia at the time of his death. He was also the author of Getting Beyond Tragedy (2006).
