Diversity has become a buzz word, and lately with a negative connotation. However, in his first letter to the church in Corinth, Paul writes about the importance of diversity within the church. You can read my latest article on umc.org here.
1 Corinthians 12 precedes the famous chapter on love that is often read at weddings. Paul segues from his discussion on the variety of gifts by saying that he will show us “an even better way.” That way is love. When we love our neighbor, we can celebrate our differences, and be grateful that we are not all carbon copies of each other.
