Church, together we are powerful! We are created as one body with Christ Jesus as the head. Don't miss this life-changing conversation with Skot Welch founder of Global Bridge Builders, an internationally respected diversity, equity, and inclusion consulting firm. He is also the author of Unfractured: A Christ-Centered Action Plan for Cultural Change. We discuss the power of unity and the importance of exalting Jesus in all aspects of our lives. Together we explore the need for a new language that centers around Christ and the recognition that our identities should be grounded in Him. Maturity is necessary for unity, and Christians are to lead the conversation on unity and revival. Skot also addresses the issue of idolatry and the importance of honoring and valuing the diversity within the body of Christ. “We have to give [Christ] lordship, and not our denominations or political parties or things like that. Those things cannot be central to my identity. They are fundamental to my identity. But Christ is at the center, which is Christocentric,” said Welch. Listen to hear testimonies from Skot's life, a powerful prayer in the end.CONNECT WITH OUR GUEST: Skot Welch Global Bridgebuilders, LinkedIn, Facebook, Website, Unfractured: A Christ-Centered Action Plan for Cultural ChangeRESOURCE: Are you looking for a way to enhance your prayer time?

In this episode, Skot Welch talks about his new book Unfractured which talks about how together we can change the conversation--and change the world. We're often left in dead-end debates on racial tensions, foolishly expecting solutions from a culture obsessed with canceling and dividing. But what if the church could create a more effective dialogue?

Great minds think alike, or so we've been told, but what if different minds help to build better communities, better companies, and even better churches? In this episode of VOICES' Where Ya From? podcast, international business consultant Skot Welch discusses diversity, equity, and inclusion and shares his passion for creating communities that reflect the diversity that God designed. Guest Bio: Skot Welch is the president and founder of Global Bridgebuilders, a results-focused firm pioneering diversity and inclusion initiatives to a wide range of Fortune 500 clients in the United States and across the globe. He is also the author of 101 Ways to Enjoy the Mosaic: Creating a Diverse Community Right in Your Own Backyard, the coauthor of Plantation Jesus: Race, Faith, and a New Way Forward, and the founder of The Mosaic Film Experience, an educational platform that empowers underserved youth through digital storytelling. Skot and his wife, Barbara, reside in Michigan and have two children. Notes & Quotes: “When you have people that are different, you actually have innovation that is stronger, higher . . . . And there's books written about it. Now, there's studies on it. Heterogeneous groups are more innovative.” “God loves His mosaic. He didn't make any of us to be the same. There's seven and a half billion of us, and yet not even identical twins are alike.” Why don't we just understand each other's stories? It makes God smile. He didn't leave it as an option. He gave it as a commandment, by the way, it's not optional. We need to get along and we need to act like family. So let's have the hard conversations. Let's do the work.
