Multi-Ethnic Mission

As the United States continues to become more ethinically diverse how can the church be a centerpiece for all people in a local community? Understanding that the multi-ethnic church is Biblically mandated in the New Testament will provide new ways to pioneer a bridge between the church and diverse communities.

Dr. Mark DeYmaz is the founding pastor of the Mosaic Church of Central Arkansas (www.mosaicchurch.net), a multi-ethnic and economically diverse church where significant percentages of Black and White Americans, together with men and women from more than 30 nations, currently worship God together as one. A recognized leader in the emerging, Multi-ethnic Church Movement, his book, Building a Healthy Multi-ethnic Church (Jossey-Bass/Leadership Network), provides the Biblical mandate for the multi-ethnic church and outlines seven core commitments required to bring it about.
