The Multicultural Church

27Feb
I finished reading "The Multi-Cultural Church." Here are the highlights that I found interesting.
  • The church needs to reclaim its leadership in the journey of reconciliation. 
  •  How can we help heal the wounds of segregation and separatism?
    • Reconciliation comes from the Greek word dKatallasso, which means "to change."
  • Changing the hearts of God's people is a spiritual matter that is to be handled with care. 
  • It is not just about the pastor. They need a sidekick. Someone that is dependable to "stand with" and "stand in for" the pastor. They are the ambassadors. 
  • The focus of the multicultural ministry is to be a reconciler across a diverse body of believers. 
  • In order to understand you must make an attempt to walk in their shoes. 
  • Teaching and spreading love is the foundation of reconciliation.
