Can We Be Friends?
Jesus commands us to love one another as he has loved us. In order for us to become a reconciled diverse community that we want to be, it is imperative that we move out of our comfort zones and reach out across ethnic and culture lines. The best way to do this is in a one-on-one relationship with people that are different than us. This is a key way for every person to expand their worldview and move toward the divine beauty of diversity.
