Recenzii
" Gods New Whiz Kids? fully exemplifies the spirit of Asian American Studies by crossing broad disciplinary boundaries to provide the deepest understanding of Korean Americans religious lives. Rebecca Kim deftly weaves together the best literature on identity and power construction from the broader Asian American Studies canon."
-Journal of Asian American StudiesPacked with information on historical context and deeply informed by a growing literature. . . first-rate sociology and essential readingChristian Century"In this fascinating book, Rebecca Kim explores why second-generation Korean American college students are disproportionately joining Korean ethnic campus ministries over pan-Asian, multiracial, or predominantly white campus ministries. Providing a wealth of detail and information about both campus ministries and second-generation Korean evangelical Christians, God's New Whiz Kids? is an essential volume for researchers and students of both Asian American and immigrant religious experiences."
Pyong Gap Min, co-editor of Building Faith Communities: Religions in Asian America"This pioneer study on the emergence of Korean American and Asian American Evangelicals on college campuses makes a significant contribution to our understanding of the complex processes of ethnic formation, identity work, and religious participation. . . . A must-read for students of immigration and religion and an indispensable sourcebook for ministers, pastors, and other church leaders who wrestle with questions of diversity and ministry among immigrants and their offspring at the turn of the twenty-first century."
