Lucas Kwong - Against Christian Xenophobia


Listen Later

Lucas Kwong sits down with Casey and discusses his Open Letter Against Christian Xenophobia. As a Chinese-Canadian-American Christian and assistant professor of English at New York City College of Technology, Lucas has a unique and perceptive take on Christian nationalism and its consequences particularly in the lives of Asian-Americans. 

Lucas and Casey discuss the cover prominent white evangelical church leaders (Keller, Piper, Sauls, etc.) give to nationalists by refusing to clearly speak to racism and nationalism. We discuss why this goes beyond rhetoric and into violence against folks that bear the image of God.
