Summary

We're called to be like Jesus, not like each other. So why are most Western churches predominantly middle class? Could it be that we're reaching out to people in poverty, but struggling to connect them into church life? Natalie Williams and Paul Brown know all too well that those saved from working class backgrounds often find themselves discipled effectively - but into middle classism rather than authentic Christianity. If we want to see people from all walks of life coming to know Christ and finding family in our churches, we need to look at the ways in which we inadvertently exclude, alienate and offend people who aren't like us.
