I received an email from the editor of the Journal of Asian and Asian American Theology asking me to contribute to their next issue because he heard from someone that I am a Filipino American theologian! I told him that I am not a theologian and my relationship to Christianity has changed radically over the years. I sent him a copy of an online essay and asked him to get back to me if he still wants me to write for the journal after reading the essay. I didn't expect his response but he replied with this:
In the meantime, is it ok for me to share your essay with some of my Korean colleagues? We Koreans in general and church folks in particular need to learn the first step to decolonize ourselve from the 6o years of the US presence in southern part of Korean peinsula. Please let me know.
Wow.
