Making room at the table
Making room at the table: an invitation to multicultural worship
edited by Brian K. Blount and Leonora Tubbs Tisdale
Publisher: Louisville, Ky. : Westminster John Knox Press, 2001.
ISBN: 0664222021   DDC: 264   LCC: BV10.2   Edition: (alk. paper)

Summary:

"Making Room at the Table explores the multicultural challenges
facing the contemporary church. Using the image of the table as the
central metaphor for worship, the writers strive to make worship more
relevant to, and inclusive of, groups that have often been excluded -
youth, ethnic minorities, and other marginalized people." "Rather
than allow multiculturalism to be a dividing ground for the church
today, this book seeks to bridge the gaps and unite all people in
worship without threatening their personal or cultural uniqueness.
Let the table be open, and let the ensuing conversation across the
table transform the community."--BOOK JACKET.
