Multilingual Church
Language is important. But not many people talk about it. Over the last few years I’ve written a number of posts about multilingualism and the church and in 2019 I completed my MA dissertation looking at just that. The MA was only the start. I want to see churches talking about language and I want to see churches using more of the languages spoken by their congregations and communities.
I also recognise that one of the reasons we don’t talk much about language is that we still need to have more conversations about identity, race, class, culture and Christian community now and in the age to come.
Here are a few of my public posts so far …
