    Diversity In The Church

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Mar 11, 2012
     | 5,740 views

    Leadership in the congregation is to reflect the Lord’s choice rather than seeking diversity as defined in the world.

    Understanding your audience is important! But while it is EASY to see this in MISSIONS, we fail to apply this to evangelism!

When that happens, the Lord is obviously trying to tell us something. Recently, I have had that experience while studying, John 4. In verse 4, we read “But He ...read more
