Thirty.Network has a new format for a new season. Wilson Wang and Jason Chang are hosting these bi-monthly meetups (bi-monthly meaning every other month, not twice a month) as an interactive time for connections and conversations about helpful topics based on the latest learnings from participants.
Our first meetup just happened on November 15th, 2018, at Ambassador Church’s office in Brea, California. Here’s the 4 short talks about preaching and communication.
Thirty Network was delighted to connect with new friends and re-connect with old friends at our 2017 Thirty Network Gathering in Pasadena, California on February 22-23.
First, a word of thanks to LifeWay Christian Resources and Asian American Center of Fuller Theological Seminary!! Sponsors help to cover the costs that make this event possible and are joining with us in advancing Asian American pastors in a multiethnic world! Thank you sponsors!
Our special guest was Daniel Im. Daniel is the Director of Church Multiplication at LifeWay Christian Resources along with various other roles in church leadership. He guided our conversations around personal leadership development and developing leadership pathways in ministry.
Daniel brought great content and he also inspired us by the very fact that he is an Asian North American making leadership impact in mainstream evangelicalism and in a multiethnic world.
And one more thing. Daniel Im has just authored a brand new book, No Silver Bullets: Five Small Shifts that will Transform Your Ministry.
The 4 talks by Daniel Im were recorded on video and can be watched online. Plus, there is a bonus 5th video with Pastor John Shin talking about taking a risk.
Thirty.Network’s Kevin Nguyen and DJ Chuang shared a breakout session about “Asian Americans Leading Well in a Multiethnic World” at the 2016 Asian American Ministry Conference and collected a handful of questions that will be answered in a series of videos on this blog.
This question was posed by one of the participants:
“Are you ignoring Asian American history by creating a Gospel focused (possibly color-blind church)? How do you incorporate a discussion on systematic racism & difference in the church?”

This question was posed by one of the participants:
“How do we (Baby Boomers, Empty Nesters, parents, lay leaders, and young adult Bible study leaders) effectively reach out to Asian American young adults? We have been leading for 30 years in different ministries, but are we relevant? How do we know? New trends? Different metrics now?”

This question was posed by one of the participants:
“Is it unbiblical to be an exclusively Asian American English speaking church and not have active intentions to be reaching out to non-Asians?”
