This our third and final episode in our series talking to Asian American faith leaders. To close out the series, we interview Emily, a Taiwanese mom who talks about her journey of following her God-led curiosities in life that brought her to the Bay Area and to serve as a Methodist pastor. Emily shares how she has come to see her leadership style as a mix of vulnerability, audacity, and being her authentic self. She also recounts ways she has subtly worked to increase awareness about issues of race and justice by inviting congregants to widen their perspectives. Throughout our conversation, Emily's sense of warmth, graciousness, and humility shines through and we appreciate how she really embodies her value of centering and prioritizing community, family, and being in relationship with one another.
