Is diversity seen as a demographic novelty or theological necessity in your church?
Rechab Gray, church planting pastor of New Creation Fellowship, talks about multi-ethnic church planting, multi-cultural church planting, how our culture influences our theology, what advice he was given as he plants this church, and struggles and advantages of plating a diverse church.
Quotes:
7:13 - "Multiethnic church planting isn't a strategy, it's our theology"
8:50 - "Christ and His redemptive work make every culture more fully what it was meant to be in the first place."
28:32 - "To see how this culture, when redeemed, is showing an aspect of the glory of God that your culture doesn't and vice versa and how much we need each other."
