Interracial Churches

Season 12

Some churches are working to overcome a lack of diversity in their congregations.

"I think a lot of our people are going to go into culture shock when they get to heaven, and they get to sit next to somebody that they didn’t maybe sit with while they were here on earth. So we’re trying to get them acclimated a little bit," says pastor Rodney Woo. His church now has 500 members divided almost equally among whites, blacks, and Hispanics, with the remainder made up of Asians.
