Despite Our Differences, We are Remarkably Similar.
Event: First AME ZionInterviewer: Gabriel
Whom did you interview?
AME Zion’s pastor, Dr. Dennis Payne was the church leader that sat with myself and two other students.
How did your EcoTypes and SDG priorities compare?There were a few small differences, but Dr. Payne’s overall answers were nearly the same and his Ecotype was identical to myself and the other two students. The four of us could not have been more different, but everyone’s answers had the same basic, “flavor.” We did not lead Dr Payne in his answers, but yet, we all had similar views.
What larger MCJD lessons did you learn?Regardless of our personal backgrounds, most people do seem to want the best for the planet and all its inhabitants, animal, vegetable or mineral.
