In this class, moving from our consideration of the historical and practical reasons offered in support of the Personal Resolution, we begin our discussion of the changes generally suggested as necessary for demonstrating a genuine repentance. There are frequently three areas of change mentioned. First, we must find ways to achieve greater representation of ethnic and racial minorities in all positions of influence within the PCA. Second, we must discover and meet the needs of cultural, ethnic, and racial minorities in order to create a clear welcome for them in our churches. And, third, we must welcome diverse expressions of worship and worship styles that flow from the greater cultural diversity we are pursuing for the PCA.
