1. That is the way it has always been. Very few are willing to make the necessary changes to bring change, i.e., a white or black pastor bringing on staff a fellow pastor of another race and sharing the stage time. If it's not up front, it's a FAKE!
2. Not being intentional. Diversity just doesn't fall out of the sky because you put on a good show! It takes incredible sensitivity, planning and intentionality. There must be an agressiveness about learning other cultures and reflecting them in your church.
3. Complacency. "Hey, we have 2,000 people, it doesn't matter they are all white, and the community we live in is 40% African-American. As long as we "feel" we are being successful (and numbers can hide a lot), we become content. We have to do church biblicaly, not just numerically!
