The Jesus I Wish I Knew in High School: Asian American EditionĀ helps teens see the difference knowing Jesus makes in facing their unique challenges with identity, culture, and family.
Being a teenager is itself an overwhelming experience, but the struggles unique to Asian American teenagers can often lead us to wonder if anyone truly knows what we're going through. In this book, twelve authors will come alongside you to share their own high school experiences and to help us know that Jesus makes a difference in our unique struggles: He sees us and knows us fully.
These testimonies of growing up Asian American include struggles with belonging, performance issues, fear of failure, living in an honor/shame culture, immigrant parents, eating disorders, sexual assault, and adoption. Each writer now walks faithfully with Jesus in all of their ethnic and cultural distinctions. These stories lift up the Asian American experience with dignity and give you the opportunity to find both representation and a sense of belonging and worth.
