How Do We Build Multicultural Congregations?

Season 6 · Episode 247

Monday, January 19, 2026 • Duration 14:05

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. famously observed that “11 o’clock on Sunday morning is the most segregated hour in America.” In this episode of Apostolic Life in the 21st Century, Dr. David K. Bernard reflects on that statement and its ongoing relevance for today’s church.

Dr. Bernard also discusses the importance of multicultural ministry and shares practical, biblical insights on how churches can create a welcoming environment for people of every race, ethnicity, and culture. Drawing from his experience as a pastor and church planter in Austin, Texas, as well as his years of leadership within the United Pentecostal Church International, he offers guidance for both church leaders and individual believers who desire to reflect the unity of the body of Christ.
