Asian American Christians have been leaving the immigrant church for various reasons, and one of the consequences is strong homesickness. Wilson Wang and Roy Kim share some of their reflections about missing the immigrant church, despite all its flaws.   Some of their talking points include: Nostalgic and familiar Asian family dynamics at church The centrality of eating together at church Getting scolded at the immigrant church is normal, but getting scolded at a White church is grounds for a fist fight Pastoral visitations are so inefficient, but can feel so good! Obedience to a pastor who knows you vs obedience to a pastor on a screen; and more. Plus, we answer listener questions such as: Is there a way to explain to people why you are leaving church, but without slandering?   As always, we hope that something you hear helps you feel like you're not alone, that there are others in the same boat as you.
