Thesis (D.Min.)--Assemblies of God Theological Seminary, 2017.

The American church stands as one of the most segregated institutions. While the American Church lacks diversity, the U.S. population continues to increase in diversity. But the Springfield metropolitan area, composed of 92 percent Caucasians, has not kept in step with the national trend. This lack of diversity has affected the church community; while seemingly friendly to others, some churches make it difficult for a non-Caucasian person to assimilate into their congregations. The church needs to develop a greater awareness of the richness of diversity and the benefits it could experience by embracing diversity. The church should also serve as a catalyst for such change.

520 $a The American church stands as one of the most segregated institutions. While the American Church lacks diversity, the U.S. population continues to increase in diversity. But the Springfield metropolitan area, composed of 92 percent Caucasians, has not kept in step with the national trend. This lack of diversity has affected the church community; while seemingly friendly to others, some churches make it difficult for a non-Caucasian person to assimilate into their congregations. The church needs to develop a greater awareness of the richness of diversity and the benefits it could experience by embracing diversity. The church should also serve as a catalyst for such change.
520 $a The purpose of this project is to raise awareness in the Life360 Church network of the multiethnic population that exists within the pre-dominantly mono-cultural setting of the Springfield area and to cast vision for integrating diversity into the church. The execution of the project included planning and implementing the three-fold product of the research. (1) a two-hour seminar delivered to the seven lead pastors of Life360. (2) The same seminar, divided into three parts, taught to the congregation of Life360 Intercultural. (3) A vision-casting presentation, taught at the other three local Life360 sites or Parkcrest, Republic and Westgate.
520 $a The results show a desire from participants to change their racial views positively within a short period of time and a willingness to include church members with ethnically diverse background by utilizing some of the practical steps shared in my presentation.
