In a 2011 State of the City Address, the mayor of pastor and author Mark Hearn's city said there were fifty-seven languages spoken at the local high school. Hearn left asking himself, How should our church respond?
This question led to a movement that brought First Baptist Duluth to reflecting its surrounding community. This journey was captured in Pastor Hearn’s first book, Inspiring Your Church to Embrace Multicultural Ministry Now, nearly five years after Technicolor, members of his congregation discuss the joys, struggles, and triumphs of being a part of a multi-ethnic church- providing a glimpse of the nature of a church that reflects its community.
Hearing in Technicolor is a inspiring book about how we as church members should respond to a multicultural community. As part of a international community church that is constantly changing and welcoming new members i really enjoyed reading this book. Also it gives us ideas how to present changes in the minds of the congregations especially to the local members.
