289 - Building Multicultural Churches (with Tony Thompson)

Broadcast Church Planting Podcast

In this episode, we chat with Tony Thompson, long-time church planter, leader of Hope Church Luton, and passionate advocate for cross-cultural mission in the UK. Tony shares wisdom from years of planting and leading churches in diverse contexts, including insights from his new book Building Multicultural Churches. He unpacks the challenges and beauty of creating church communities that reflect the rich diversity of God’s kingdom, not by flattening differences, but by embracing them. We talk unity, race, mission, leadership, and how the Church can respond to the shifting cultural landscape with authenticity and gospel-shaped inclusion. 🎥 Check out Tony’s Broadcast course on Multicultural Church Planting: 👉 https://thebroadcastnetwork.org/courses/multi-cultural-church-planting-with-tony-thompson/ 📚 Grab Tony’s new book Building Multicultural Churches: 👉 https://www.amazon.co.uk/Building-Multicultural-Churches-Valuing-Diversity/dp/1917455100 This is a rich, challenging and inspiring conversation — well worth your time.
