How Can Christians Support Religious Diversity

On this program I am pleased to host Dr. Bob Roberts, Jr. for a conversation about Christianity and religious diversity.

Dr. Bob Roberts, Jr. is the founding and Senior Pastor of NorthWood Church near Dallas/Ft. Worth, TX. NorthWood’s congregation of active participants now averages in excess of 2000. NorthWood has started over 173 churches in the US and is a center for training new pastors.

He is a leading practitioner and writer on glocal transformation of individuals, religious communities, non-governmental organizations, cities, and global engagement. He has worked extensively in Vietnam, Afghanistan, West Bank and Gaza, Indonesia, Syria, Belize, and other countries.

He is the author of several books including Transformation; Glocalization; The Multiplying Church; Real Time Connection: Linking Your Job with God’s Global Work, and the recently released Bold as Love - What can happen when we see people the way God does.

Roberts’ experience has resulted in his being called upon by a global audience, including the United Nations and various State Departments around the world to assist with humanitarian and reconciliation projects. He works with various religions and religious leaders for greater understanding and to participate and assist with engagement projects.

Bob is a graduate of Baylor University (BA), Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary (M.Div), and Fuller Seminary (D.Min).
