RATIONALE
This course is helpful if you plan on living, ministering, or working in the U.S. It explores the dynamics of the multicultural paradigm and provides a Christian perspective on what the role of the church of Jesus Christ should be. The course fundamentally assumes two things: First, all Christians are called to be the “Salt and Light” of the world and this responsibility is not limited to those that look and act like us, and second, changing population demographics is rapidly creating a “look and feel” to the U.S. that is representative of all people groups.
