Why are churches in America so racially segregated? Almost no place in our culture can we see the racial divide so clear with no real pressure from society to divide by ethnic identity.

Is it wrong for the church to self-segregate? In todays episode of “HardKore Christianity”, Kaitlin and I will attempt to answer the question, “Why are churches in America so racially divided?” We’ll explore statistics concerning the racial make up American churches, we’ll discuss what we think could be done to bridge the gap and change the paradigm, we’ll take a look at whether the Bible addresses the topic of racial divisions within the church, and we’ll discuss how racism factors in the whole discussion.
