In Episode 32, we’re joined by Danielle Buwon Kim. Danielle was born in South Korea and moved to the United States during her middle school years. She is an ordained elder in the United Methodist Church and is currently appointed as the Associate Director of Research and Development at the North Texas Annual Conference. She is the pastor of Ka:ll Community, a community of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders (AAPIs) and allies who gather enjoy Asian food together, expose and heal AAPI invisibility, and reclaim their Christian faith.

In this episode, we discuss the connection with food and spirituality, community rooted in shared experience and culture, using research to benefit the church, and a future of the church rooted in value over vision.
