About This Course

Being a multicultural, inclusive church is not optional. It's biblical. However, it takes prayerful reflection and concentrated effort to do this well. This course will help you understand the pitfalls of multicultural ministry and equip you to better navigate racial and cultural concerns. In this Making Holistic Disciples course, you will learn about, and how to identify, the impacts of racial and identity trauma in systems and individuals.
