About This Course

We live in a diverse world full of diverse people, languages, and cultures; yet our churches can fail to represent that well, if at all. This Approaches to Multicultural Worship Part 2 course helps worship leaders develop a plan to incorporate multicultural worship into their church communities.

This is the second of a two-part series, focused on developing a plan to incorporate multicultural worship in your church and services, while the first walks through the explanations and ideas of multicultural worship.
