The collective voices in this book argue that there is underappreciated beauty, diversity, joy, benefit, and place for the Asian American church. Asian American leaders need to joyfully embrace the call to serve the Asian American church, not only for the emerging generation but for the broader church. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book was written by faithful practitioners affiliated with SOLA Network: Faith Chang (Grace Christian Church), Steve S.
