Dr. Tom's co-host this week is Rev. Claudell County, chair of Leadership and Administrative Studies at Unity Institute and Seminary. Rev. Claudell and Dr. Tom will look at the many faces of diversity in a postmodern world. As the 21st century beckons humankind toward a global society, nations that have historically been homogenous-like the member-states of the European Union-are now becoming racially and ethnically diverse. However, the force that arguably should be leading the way, the Christian Church, remains the least diverse institution in the Western world. Why is the Sunday experience, by and large, the most segregated time of the week for people of faith? Or is there a positive social function for a church which provides safe space for people of similar backgrounds to gather? Let's Talk About It will explore the sometimes uncomfortable reality of life on a truly diverse planet. |
