Living in Color: Embracing God's Passion for Diversity

Rating:
Summary: Randy Woodley is a man with a vision
Review: Randy Woodley is a man with a vision-a vision of how God loves diversity. I just got done reading this book and I highly reccomend this to EVERYONE. Randy is not afraid to say some things that need to be said and understood in our nation today. He gives advice on reconcilation and restitution between the races that is simply some of the best advice I have heard. He points out how God has placed each one of us in our own cultures for a reason and that we should embrace what God has given us(While weeding out the aspects of our culture that is not pleasing to God) and not be ashamed of it. I greatly appreciated how this book points to the fact that missionaries(and the church in general) often make the mistake of pushing western culture on those they try to share the gospel with. This book made me cry and encouraged me to seek to better understand my own Creek Indian Heritage (I am also of mixed blood).READ THIS BOOK!!!!
