I wonder if these questions become all the more needful and charged when considering non-diverse (i.e. white) churches in non-diverse communities (I’m in remote SE Kansas). Does a song from Brazil or Tanzania or somewhere else fit at all, maybe as a voice that the congregation might otherwise never hear? This stuff keeps me awake at night.

It seems like a recognition of our connection to a global church and the exchange of this gifts is important for all us? Perhaps?
This is REALLY good stuff and getting me to think. Thank you
Thoughtful post and good resources, Melissa.
