What’s your reason for doing multicultural worship?
What difference will it make?
- What difference will it make if different ethnicities from my neighborhood start worshipping together?
- What difference will it make if our Korean church starts partnering with the black church down the street?
- What difference will it make if we start singing in different languages?
- What difference will it make if we start living this out in the workplace?
Why should I attempt this?
This question will help you move past the circumstantial reasons and focus on the biblical reasons and values for doing multicultural worship.
Circumstantial reasons why some churches are making the move to a multicultural or even multigenerational service are…
- Because their congregation is shrinking or in some cases dying off.
- It’s just cool to do different styles of music at church.
- It’s starting to become trendy
I want to encourage you to dig deep into the scriptures and see the vision God has laid out for the multicultural church. In that, it becomes a conviction and not just a reaction to our circumstances.
So, what’s your reason for doing multicultural worship?
Sharing Your Vision
Peter Park talks about what you need to do before sharing your vision of multicultural worship with others.
If your vision is for a year, plant wheat.
If your vision is for ten years, plant trees.
If your vision is for a lifetime, plant people.
