Is your church a hub for every ethnicity?
Using his personal backstory that begins with the arrival of his grandfather on Britain's shores sixty years ago, Paul Faulkner unpacks the complexity around being "equal parts black and British".
His honesty about the pain of being rejected by Christians in the past, and his love of a Saviour who delights in diversity are an important call to action for the church today. Paul's vision, sixty years later, is of his own grandchildren belonging to a church that is a loving family of every ethnicity. But to make that difference, we need to start today.
