In this final episode of season 1, Second, Paul, and Der reflect on Season 1 as a whole. We "look back as a way of looking forward" to what's to come in season 2. And we have some ideas that we are really excited about (as well as new co-hosts we hope to invite for season 2). Listen now and stay tuned for later!  

On this episode, we process some of the recent current events in America and around the world that have impacted Hmong American culture. 

Paul, Second, and Der share their 2nd generation joys, gifts, pains, and struggles within Hmong ethnic specific American churches. This fourth episode contains two parts but is intended to be listened as a single episode. This is part 2 of 2.

This episode features our very first guest, Gao Foua Jordan, who shares her experiences as a missionary kid, a missional leader and innovator in her community, and her heart for women leading in ministry. 

"Gao Foua is a Third Culture Kid who grew up in Thailand and Malaysia. She, her husband, John, and kids live outside of Pittsburgh in an urban inner-city like neighborhood. She started a social impact business (https://www.poppyandloom.com/) selling handmade Hmong products to take young people in her own backyard overseas."

This episode explores the relationship between Christian faith and justice. We touch on terms such as "biblical justice" and "social justice." And we ask: How might Hmong American Christians imagine their participation in God's justice for all of humanity? 

One of the hosts, Der Lor, also shares some vivid experiences of joining the peaceful protests for George Floyd in Minneapolis during the summer of 2020.
