My friend Jeff Jue gave this set of talks, an excellent, clear, thoughtful reflection on identity and theology from his Asian American heritage, partly autobiographical. (Brillant snarky contrast between “Where are you from?” vs. “Where are you really from?”)

DJ,
Just wanted to say thanks for posting these. I just started listening to msg 1 tonight on a long drive. One thing struck me – ‘is there any basis for churches that are not multi-cultural anymore?’ … or something like that he said.
Thanks!
Thank you! I have finished the whole set. Very valuable stuff. I will use it to stimulate some thinking to a few other friends…
Great to see a contextualised expression of the faith here!
