Multicultural Ministry
Finding Your Church's Unique Rhythm
David A. Anderson
- David
- Anderson
- writes
- about
- multicultural
- leadership
- not
- from
- the
- perspective
- of
- an
- ivory
- tower
- intellectual,
- but
- as
- a
- hands-on
- practitioner
- who
- loves
- and
- believes
- in
- the
- body
- of
- Christ.
- .
- .
- .
- If
- you
- believe
- there
- is
- no
- solution
- to
- the
- race
- problem,
- I
- urge
- you
- to
- reconsider
- and
- to
- learn
- from
- someone
- who
- is
- on
- the
- frontlines
- of
- making
- multicultural
- ministry
- a
- reality
- in
- the
- church
- today.—Bill
- Hybels,
- founding
- and
- senior
- pastor,
- Willow
- Creek
- Community
- ChurchMulticulturalism
- isn’t
- a
- trend,
- it’s
- a
- reality.
- Evidence
- of
- this
- country’s
- rich
- racial
- mix
- is
- all
- around
- us
- in
- our
- schools,
- our
- stores,
- our
- neighborhoods,
- our
- recreational
- facilities—everywhere
- except
- our
- churches.
- Heaven
- may
- include
- every
- culture,
- tongue,
- and
- tribe,
- but
- in
- the
- United
- States,
- Sunday
- morning
- remains
- one
- of
- the
- last
- bastions
- of
- ethnic
- separatism.
- It’s
- time
- to
- stop
- merely
- talking
- about
- multicultural
- worship
- and
- start
- living
- it.In
- this
- groundbreaking
- book,
- David
- Anderson
- invites
- us
- all—African-American,
- Asian,
- Caucasian,
- and
- Latino—to
- learn
- how
- to
- dance
- the
- dance
- of
- multicultural
- ministry.
- We’ve
- all
- got
- different
- moves,
- but
- that’s
- the
- beauty
- of
- diversity:
- the
- various
- gifts
- we
- bring,
- the
- wisdom
- of
- our
- heritages,
- the
- different
- creative
- ways
- we
- express
- the
- same
- Lord.
- Think
- it
- can’t
- be
- done?
- Think
- again.
- As
- Anderson
- demonstrates,
- it
- is
- being
- done
- successfully
- by
- more
- and
- more
- churches.
- Wherever
- your
- church
- is
- now
- on
- the
- multicultural
- continuum,
- you
- can
- join
- the
- ranks
- of
- those
- moving
- toward
- a
- diverse
- and
- thriving
- ministry.
- Combining
- frontline
- insights
- with
- inspiring
- stories,
- Anderson
- takes
- you
- and
- your
- church
- into
- the
- strategy-level
- realities
- of
- what
- it
- takes
- to
- make
- multicultural
- ministry
- work
- in
- your
- setting.Do
- you
- hear
- the
- beat
- of
- the
- Spirit?
- God
- is
- calling
- your
- church
- to
- the
- dance
- of
- unity
- in
- diversity.
- Don’t
- hold
- back!

- Ministry

- steps.Includes
