Think of a country that has more Blacks than any other in the world
except Nigeria…a country where Asian Americans are the fastest growing
ethnic group…a country with over 350 different nations of indigenous
people, most of whom speak their own languages…a country with a city
that has more Puerto Ricans than San Juan, the capital of Puerto Rico,
and another city whose Hispanic population is greater than seven Latin
American countries. Did you think of the United States of America? This
is our country, and demographers say that we are becoming even more
diverse faster!
In Luke 10 Jesus gives what is called the parable of the good
Samaritan. This parable is His answer to the question, "Who is my
neighbor?" I believe Jesus is saying to us, "the neighborhood is
changing!" Are we ready for the neighborhood to change? Do we know how
to love these new neighbors as Jesus has commanded? We in Cultural
Affairs are here to encourage, support and lead the US Navigator Family
in fulfilling the second Greatest Commandment and the Great Commission.
In the coming months we will begin posting resources that will help us
advance the gospel among our ethnically diverse ‘neighbors’ here at
home in the US.
