Welcome to the L3 Podcast! We hope this podcast will be helpful to both you and your ministry.
Today, we're sitting down with our newly elected Ethnic Diversity Presbyter, Pastor Steve Amaro, for a crucial conversation on diversity in the local church. How do we move beyond simply having different ethnicities in our pews to truly embracing the diverse cultures God brings to our congregations? Pastor Steve Amaro unpacks this important topic, emphasizing the difference between acknowledging skin color and truly welcoming culture. Using a powerful analogy of adding rich "seasoning" to a meal, he explains how diversity brings a fuller flavor of the Kingdom to our churches and communities. What are the practical steps pastors can take to make every individual feel seen, heard, and valued without resorting to "tokenism"? Pastors Aaron and Steve provide an insightful and practical guide for any leader passionate about building a church that truly reflects the heart of God and the community they serve.
