Leonce Crump describes the vision as “trans-cultural.” Not multi-cultural, but trans-cultural.

Crump pastors Renovation Church in Atlanta and has found the image of a tapestry to be helpful. The individual pieces are essential, but the whole is more beautiful than the parts. Says Crump, more important than being African-American is being a child of God.

In this five-minute video, Crump wonderfully articulates his trans-cultural vision, walking us through the biblical storyline and sharing his church’s experience of unity in diversity.

Three sermons from John Piper on racial harmony:

• The Reformed Faith and Racial Harmony

• God’s Pursuit of Racial Harmony at Infinite Cost

• Racial Diversity, Racial Harmony, and the Gospel Walk
