Restoring brokenness in cultural communities to Jesus
I am passionate about helping individuals and faith communities address the difficulties and tensions that Christians experience between cultures, races and generations. This means helping people to become ethnically, culturally and racially competent both in ethnic migrant churches as well as helping Western churches who are seeking to welcome minority ethnicities in their church communities.
How Can I Help?
Speaking
Be introduced to the issues – both an encouragement and challenge…a chance to sit back, absorb and have your awareness raised
Training
Let me help guide you and your faith community with information to reflect on, questions to discuss, and implications to take back and implement in a workshop format.
1-1 Support
Cultures are diverse, and within cultures themselves there is a wide spectrum of practices and beliefs. Let’s talk individually about your specific context and address the challenges together whether its at an personal or church level.
