here’s a can’t put it down graphic novel that you must pick up now! – american born chinese by gene yang published by first second. it is intelligently written with three different plotlines that converge to make one great expression about identity. — All Jin Wang wants is to fit in…

hey – I like this set up and your thoughts on the aa church. Don’t know if you’ve read it yet, but IVP produced a book last year called Growing Healthy Asian American Churches, written by some AA pastors of well known AA churches.
