Eugene Cho – How to Change the World, One Day at a Time
Date Published: May 15, 2020
As we prepare to wrap up Season Two of our podcast, Korean American Perspective, we are excited to announce our tenth episode! Today, we feature Reverend Eugene Cho, a 1.5-generation Korean American pastor, inspirational speaker, author, and humanitarian.
Join us in our conversation about Eugene’s life, the Christian faith, humanitarian work, and his perspectives about navigating faith and politics. You can’t talk about the Korean American community without mentioning faith and spirituality. For many of us growing up in immigrant families, the church often served as the bedrock that grounded our Korean American society here in the United States. Pastors would serve dual-purpose as family counselors, social workers, language interpreters, and more. Even today, the church continues to play a critical role in the health and welfare of the Korean American immigrant community.
During times in which faith has become an increasingly important part for many as world events unfold, this podcast provides great perspective into how we can find balance between our faith and politics.
If you missed any episodes from Season 2 or would like to go back and listen to Season 1, you can listen here.
