What do you know (or can you discover) concerning the ethnicity and national origins of your parents, grandparents, or earlier generations?
Think about the phases of your life. How did your ethnic identity affect you? How has your awareness changed?
How have you experienced discrimination, prejudice, and inequality among ethnic groups? What do you remember about experiences of being treated unfairly because of cultural identity? Or of treating others unfairly?
In what ways do the stories, values, and practices of your ethnic heritage open up the gospel or what it means to be a Christian? What elements of your ethnic heritage make being a Christian difficult?
