Intercultural Perspectives on Ministry Among Emerging Adults | Alcántara, Bell Profit, & Roh

Intercultural perspectives on emerging adulthood bring important depth and texture to any and all conversations about emerging adulthood. Each panelist in our intercultural perspectives panel share fresh stories and significant experiences drawn from their time working in non-white, immigrant, and diaspora ministry settings. By sharing their stories, they identify points of convergence and divergence with contemporary research on emerging adults. They also help see how crucial intercultural perspectives are for any person who hopes to minister to emerging adults. The panelists challenge assumptions, offer significant insights, and raise thought-provoking questions. Jared E. Alcántara (PhD Princeton Theological Seminary) is Associate Professor of Preaching and holds the Paul W. Powell Endowed Chair in Preaching at Baylor University’s George W. Truett Theological Seminary. He is also the author of several books on preaching, including The Practices of Christian Preaching: Essentials for Effective Proclamation (Baker Academic, 2019) and Crossover Preaching: Intercultural-Improvisational Homiletics in Conversation with Gardner C. Taylor (IVP Academic, 2015). Jerrica Bell Profit (BS Northwestern University) is Enablement Communications Manager at Salesforce. She previously worked in campus ministry through InterVarsity Christian Fellowship at the University of Illinois Chicago. Jimmy Roh (PhD Candidate Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary) is the Partnership Manager for Global Outreach at McLean Bible Church and Adjunct Instructor at Multnomah University.

Om Podcasten

This is our archive of public lectures and conversations where scholars and pastors offer careful reflection on a range of biblical, theological, and ecclesial topics. The HCTU seeks to bridge the gap between the academy and the church by cultivating resources and communities that promote Christian wisdom. This is accomplished through a cluster of initiatives, each of which is aimed at applying practical Christian wisdom to important kingdom issues—for the good of the church, for the soul of the theological academy, for the sake of the world, and ultimately for the glory of God.
