The vital connection between our faith and our cultural identity

The Ignite Institute : CHANGE HAPPENS NOW!

On this episode we have a conversation about building lasting connections across cultures and the vital connection between our faith and our cultural identity. Dr. Michelle Ami Reyes is an Indian American author, speaker, church planter, and activist who is deeply engaged with anti-racist work. As the co-founder of a non profit called Made for Pax, she inspires and equips the next generation of like-minded communities of color, to pursue peace, justice, and wholeness in the world.
She shares some of the challenges and victories getting her non-profit going and insights for emerging leaders wanting to take on such a movement. She takes on the big issues of cultural difference, stereotyping, appropriation, and racism, and talks about what it takes to build cross-cultural relationships that lead to healing. We also learn what inspired her to write her new book, Becoming All Things: How Small Changes Lead to Lasting Connections Across Cultures, and what she hopes readers will take away from it.
