The Korean immigrant community has been striving for their new identity in between two cultures: Korean-ness and American-ness. This hyphenated identity, however, often triggers and fosters a sense of identity diffusion, and holds back the assertion of self-agency. Also the community is challenged continously upon their Christian ministry to provide care that can help themselves positively cope with suffering from their marginal contexts. This project is intentionally designed to help them re-construct own authentic theological narratives that are relevant to their suffering experiences through re-reading biblical suffering narratives in a small group setting so that they can attain sensitivity in their faith journey.
