My middle daughter, Abby, is a soccer player. She has played since kindergarten. She is also the kid that we have to constantly ask to “stop kicking the ball in the house,” as she is always dribbling some spherical item off of any and every surface she can—including off of unsuspecting sisters and parental units.

I am very excited about a new upcoming book, Making Paper Cranes by Rev. Mihee Kim-Kort.  I wrote a Foreword and an endorsement for this book which will be released next month.

“With this historical backdrop, Making Paper Cranes takes us on a theological journey that explores, reflects and contributes to Asian American Feminist Theology discourse through engaging literary, historical, and sociological sources. Most importantly, Kim-Kort writes from her heart as she finds herself in the statistics and dates of these literary, historical, and social narratives.

This is a repost of my blog on Patheos. It is entitled “Through Hispanic Eyes-Theological Education and White Privilege.”

‘Puerto Rico is a beautiful island with lakes, rivers, mountains, rainforests and of course picturesque beaches. I received a warm welcome at the airport in San Juan: 92 degrees with 74% humidity. Despite the hot, humid weather conditions, I went with eagerness to explore the culture, history, and tradition of Puerto Rico and reflect upon theological education in light of Hispanic theology.’ Link
