Multicultural Ministry Without Compromise | Pastor Steven Breceda
What does it really take to reach people who don’t look like you, think like you, or come from the same background — **without compromising truth**?
In this episode of *The Babbler*, Marshall sits down with **Pastor Steven Breceda**, pastor of **New Home Church in Atmore, Alabama**, for a powerful and transparent conversation on **multicultural ministry, cultural humility, and apostolic outreach**.
Pastor Breceda shares over **23 years of ministry** serving in the heart of the **Poarch Band of Creek Indians community**, offering real stories, hard lessons, and practical wisdom for pastors, leaders, and believers navigating unfamiliar cultural territory.
This is not theory. This is lived experience.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
• Why the **gospel is universal**, but methods must be contextual
• How unintentional phrases can close doors you didn’t know existed
• The importance of learning the **history and culture** of your field of labor
• Why **relationship precedes revival**
• The difference between **loving culture** and **compromising conviction**
• How discipleship raises leaders who can go where you cannot
• Why missions is no longer just overseas — it’s happening **in the shadow of our steeples**
From shelling peas on elders’ porches, to navigating powwows with wisdom, to seeing Native American believers rise into leadership, this conversation reveals what happens when love leads the way and truth is preached without fear.
If you are a pastor, missionary, content creator, or believer who wants to reach people **without watering down the message**, this episode will challenge and equip you.
As Pastor Breceda reminds us:
> Love God. Love people. The rest will take care of itself.
