Right now, the U.S. is experiencing the most dramatic demographic shift in its history.  By 2050, white Americans will no longer represent a majority of the population.  Instead, they’ll be the largest minority group in a country comprised entirely of minorities, followed by Hispanic Americans, African Americans, and Asian Americans.  What does that mean for American Christianity?

It’s safe to say Soong-Chan Rah is one of the Evangelical church’s leading voices on issues of race, culture, and social justice.  His 2009 book, The Next Evangelicalism, ramped up the church’s conversation on the changing cultural landscape of Christianity in the world and its implications for Western believers.  Now with his latest book, Many Colors:  Cultural Intelligence for a Changing Church, Soong-Chan explores how American Christians can become more sensitive to the new multicultural realities of our world.  A professor at North Park Theological Seminary in Chicago and a former urban pastor, Soog-Chan cares deeply about the future of the church.  I recently spoke with him about his personal journey, and why jazz is better than cramy ranch dressing.
