Mont Mitchell and the team at Westbrook Christian Church in Illinois have created a new blog, Color Outside the Lines, which focuses on multi-cultural church planting.
Some quotes:
I think it is high time for a blog that is devoted to the church becoming a place of rich diversity. Martin Luther King Jr. was right when he said that the most segregated hour of the week is Sundays at 10:00. I don't know how it affects you, but I think that Christ envisioned a church where all people regardless of their race, color and economic status could come together to worship the One King of all creation.
We have a vision to do a ministry work, support a missionary and do a short-term mission trip to every country that is represented in our church.
If you want to have a multi-cultural church you have to cultivate friendships with people who don't look like you. Are you intentional about that? Have you/Are you willing to cross racial lines to become friends with the people that you want to reach? It's not going to happen until you start there!
