Summary

On February 24, 2022, Dr. Janette Ok, Associate Professor of New Testament at Fuller Seminary, presented at the third Asian American Theology and Ministry Colloquium at Princeton Theological Seminary of this year. Dr. Ok asks, What does it mean to preach in a way that reflects being Asian American? Is there such a thing as a distinctly Asian American voice and presence at the pulpit? This conversation explores possibilities for how to engage biblical interpretation as a contextual and liberative practice that interacts with Asian American identity. We consider how preaching can speak to the concrete needs and gifts of Asian American churches in ways that reflect the complexities, specificities, and pluralities of Asian American Christian experience. The Center for Asian American Christianity is a thought leader in the areas of Asian American theology and ministry. We curate a forward-thinking conversation about the issues confronting Asian American churches. Learn more about the Center for Asian American Christianity at ltiaa.com.
