"A person is not accepted or rejected by God because of her race or nationality. She is not accepted because she has a successful career, a pleasant appearance, or attends church. It is only faith in the Lord Jesus Christ that makes one right with God."—Gail E. Dudley,
Stonecroft Ministries
Cross-Cultural Director

"By God's design, people from diverse backgrounds are naturally able to work and live together with respect and in harmony. However, learned behaviors such as prejudices, fears, and stereotypes often interfere with healthy communication and trust."
—Excerpt from Intersections: Relationship without Walls

The Heart of Cross-Cultural Ministries Intersections Introduction - Cross-Cultural Ministries

Do you have a desire to serve, minister, and share the Gospel cross-culturally? Stonecroft Ministries wants to help you tap into a creative, biblical approach to diversity that looks beyond outward appearances—connecting all people through the love of one Savior. Intersections: Relationship without Walls is a first step in cross-cultural ministry!

With a focus on evangelism, participants will:

  • Increase awareness of individual cultural biases, acknowledging the impact of those biases on individuals of other cultural groups
  • Develop an understanding of possible cross-cultural challenges
  • Understand cross-cultural dynamics
  • Understand how "misunderstandings" occur in cross-cultural communication, both verbal and non-verbal
  • Expand knowledge and apply skills to work effectively in a cross-cultural ministry environment
  • Begin to develop a personal action plan for continued learning focused on building cross-cultural relationships

     

Workshop Description:
This workshop provides leaders with a biblical approach to diversity in a way that is friendly, safe, and respectful for all participants.
