We attend a Messianic Jewish Synagogue and its very racially an culturally diverse. So again the NY Times gets the story wrong. I would not attend a mega church if u paid me. About 90% of the churches in America have an average attendance of under 100. I am a retired Pastor of over 45 years an feel perfectly at home being grafted in this this group of believers and besides NY TIMES it does not mess with Sunday Football because we worship on Saturday so stick that in your Starbucks! Ha!
I’d think the special nature of the synagogue (church) is overriding lesser social considerations.
I went to a Baptist church in Hagerstown, MD which was almost exactly half black. I would note that having a Haitian theological school next door to it had an influence.
