HOWARD, III JANUARY 2011 ABSTRACT A Leadership Strategy for Managing Heterogeneous Outreach at the Edge Christian Worship Center in Minnesota Roscoe J Howard, III Doctor of Ministry School of Theology, Fuller Theological Seminary 2011 This projects’ purpose is to develop a leadership strategy for the Edge Christian Worship Center, a Seventh-day Adventist Church in Minnesota, to understand, manage, and appreciate the complexity of human diversity. Equipping the pastor, leaders, and the local congregation with the knowledge, tools, and skills of human diversity management through training will help transition the church from a culture of a homogeneous missional approach to a new heterogeneous ministry outreach for the twenty-first century. The first phase of this project argues that race-based local congregations do not have to continue as the norm in a rapidly changing multicultural society. Strong biblical evidence for a more inclusive mission model is established.
