NextGen and The Challenge of Representation with Michael Lee

from The AACC Podcast

In this episode of the AACC Podcast, our host, Izzy Koo, chats with Pastor Michael Lee of Encounter Church in Seattle, Washington. During the conversation, Pastor Michael highlights the stereotypes that often limit the perception of Asian leaders. While Asians are seen as responsible and capable, they are rarely viewed as primary leaders. This observation has fueled Michael's passion for creating spaces where Asian voices are not just included but celebrated. His commitment to a multi-ethnic church is a response to the need for diverse leadership that reflects the community's demographics.   Join us in our new series of conversations about the Next Generation and share it with a friend!
