Spiritual Riches In Diversity

In ministry, I have sought to achieve a diverse spiritual input in Sunday services: old and young, male and female, rich and poor, new believers and mature, an even-handed cultural mix -- as well as input from the wider (outside) Church. What goes largely unseen, though, is the considerable thought and effort that is required behind the scenes to achieve this. There are all kinds of things that play into many hit-and-miss efforts. OBSERVATION: What this is about, above all, is being spiritually well-rounded -- rather than being PC, which I think has little to do with Church. There are great spiritual riches in diversity -- and, a certain kind of joy. I believe it is crucial to the health of the Church. And not only in Sunday services.
