In this presentation, Dr. Lee proposes a critical vocation for Asian American churches beyond cultural and social expressions—namely, being Asian American theologically. Without receiving and owning this core calling, Asian American churches too easily fall into the temptation to be merely a community center, squandering our unique and crucial place in American Christianity. Being Asian American theologically involves an interdisciplinary task that is dynamic and fluid, always attending to the movement and work of God in our communities. Th...2023-03-241h 26

Dialogues in Asian American Theology and Ministry PodcastGabriel J. Catanus | The Pastor as Patient and AgentPastors and ministry leaders nowadays find themselves under overwhelming pressure. Especially in Asian American and immigrant communities, pastors are expected to lead and preach prophetically, educate as in-house experts, care for and counsel people towards healing, grow our ministries with limited resources, and model Christian maturity in our contexts. It’s a lot! Meanwhile, spiritual leaders must also receive care, tending to their own wounds and needs as persons.

Empirical research confirms that ministry is indeed often a difficult endeavor, imposing significant stress upon our spiritual life, our marital and family relationships, and our own emotional and physical well-being. Often, those who need counseling and care the most are Christian leaders who, over the course of their ministry journey, have been deeply wounded by fellow Christians, finding themselves now downtrodden, burnt out, isolated, misjudged, and discouraged.

Dialogues in Asian American Theology and Ministry PodcastRoy Kim | Ministering to Victims of InfidelityWhen Asian-American church leaders discover that a congregant has experienced sexual or emotional betrayal, it’s hard to know how to respond well. It’s common to freeze, or to try to problem-solve. Worse, the mind can quickly go to protecting the church from shame or scandal. Tragically, these common responses do great damage to the victim of infidelity. Even to the point of apostasy. This workshop unpacks the experience of the victim, explains why certain responses are unhelpful, and provides concrete steps for you to minister to the victim’s bleeding heart, to the glory of God. 2023-02-0941 min
