I really think that the Church at large is beginning to think about Multi-Culturalism in our churches. I really think that the consistent passionate appeal about the church of today mirroring the world that we live in, is beginning to spring forth and flourish. I think that the efforts of so many have taken deep root and a harvest is on the horizon.
Why do I think this?…. more and more people are talking about it. More and more churches are focusing upon it and more and more people are beginning to write about it. For instance this past week I was interviewed by a researcher and author from Marymount University in Virginia. This gal is a professor in the Theology and Religious studies dept. and is working on a book about the rise of intentional Multi-Ethnic churches. This is so wonderful if you ask me…. for we are a diverse nation. In fact as I write this post I am sitting at a McDonald’s waiting for Griffin to finish at a birthday party. Talk about diverse: There are three white people in the store- me and two other employees. A nice Latino family just left and the last eight people who walked in were either Indian or African - American. Diversity happens at Walmart, it happens at McDonald’s. It should happen every Sunday in God’s house.
