34 minutes

The last year has seen a massive rise in anti-Asian hate crimes across the United States. Last week's Atlanta massacres have driven us to lament and prayer. But as Asian Americans, is there more that we should be doing?

SOLA Editorial Board Member Kevin Yi, the youth and education Pastor at Church Everyday in Los Angeles, speaks with Pastor and President Raymond Chang and Dr. and Vice President Michelle Reyes from the Asian American Christian Collaborative - AACC.

Michelle Reyes, PhD, is the Vice President of the Asian American Christian Collaborative and the Co-Executive Director of Pax. She is also the Scholar in Residence at Hope Community Church. Michelle's work on faith and culture has been featured in Christianity Today, The Gospel Coalition, Missio Alliance, Faithfully Magazine and more. Her forthcoming book on cross-cultural relationships is called Becoming All Things: How Small Changes Lead to Lasting Connections Across Cultures (Zondervan; April 27, 2021).

Pastor Raymond Chang is the president of the Asian American Christian Collaborative, a pastor, and writer. He regularly preaches God’s Word and speaks throughout the country on issues pertaining to Christianity and culture, race and faith.
