ABOUT US
G2G stands for Generation to Generation and KODIA is Korean Diaspora Christian Education. It is inspired by a story in Deuteronomy where Moses, in his farewell sermon to the post-Exodus Israelites, reminds them of God’s providence, guidance, and protection as he led them out of Egypt and through the wilderness. G2G-KODIA hopes to be that voice of Moses -- leading churches and parents of Korean and Asian North American children to teach their children about their spiritual history so they can also remember and take ownership of their faith and role in God’s blessing and mission.
Our Vision
Envisioning, education, and empowering Asian North American churches and communities from generation to generation through research, leadership training, educational conferences, and curriculum development.
북미 아시안 교회와 공동체가 다음 세대를 세울 수 있도록 연구, 리더십 훈련, 교육세미나, 커리큘럼 개발을 통해 비전을 제공하고 교육하며 지원하는 사역을 지향합니다.
Why is G2G Kodia Needed?
Asian North Americans experience cultural confusion, conflict, and identity crises, despite high academic and economic achievements. For those caught between North American and Asian cultures, G2G-KODIA is committed to providing relevant tools for solidifying their faith and identity so that their God-given potential can be actualized. All of G2G-KODIA’s work is focused on researching, teaching, and empowering Asian North American youths and their teachers, pastors, and parents, to grow stronger in Jesus Christ.
