What is Asian American Youth Ministry?
Rooted’s Newest Curriculum
Restoration: 31 lessons on Ezra, Nehemiah, Esther, and Zechariah
While they can often be overlooked, the post-exilic books of Zechariah, Ezra, and Nehemiah have an important story to tell about the redemptive and restorative work of God. Written to men and women who were discouraged, distracted, and disillusioned, these books will serve as a loving wake-up call to students, just as they did to the Israelites. Additionally in the Restoration package, students will read the tale of Esther: the story of a brave woman whom God used to usher in His redemptive purposes in the most unexpected of ways.

Emerging Issues in Asian American Youth Ministry to Gen Z and Gen Alpha
Ministering to Gen Z and Gen Alpha presents its unique cultural context and challenges for youth leaders. Throw all of that in with the unique aspects of ministering to Asian American teenagers, and it poses a distinct set of questions and challenges for ministry for those serving Asian American teenagers. The webinar will begin to unwrap and dig into these issues and consider how we might define and unwrap how to tackle them.

Longing for Christmas
Do you remember what it felt like to be a little kid at Christmastime? There’s nothing quite like the anticipation of Christmas morning. But the holiday can lose its wonder as we wake up to the many hard things going on in our lives and in the world. The loss we feel over our childhood experience points to a deeper longing inside all of us—for everything sad to be undone and for us to live together with God in perfect joy.
Longing for Christmas looks at twenty-five promises God made and fulfilled in the coming of Jesus. As we explore the way God has kept his promises, we can be encouraged that ALL of the longing we feel—for a better world and for things to be made right—will be fully met in Jesus.
- Written by more than a dozen contributors from Rooted Ministry, including editor Chelsea Kingston Erickson, Cameron Cole, Anna Meade Harris, Liz Edrington, Kevin Yi, and more.
- Twenty-five short, easy-to-read Advent devotions to help teenagers see how God keeps his promises.
- Each devotional includes a daily promise, Scripture passage, questions for reflection, and a prayer.
The Jesus I Wish I Knew in High School: Asian American Edition
Being a teenager is itself an overwhelming experience, but the struggles unique to Asian American teenagers can often lead us to wonder if anyone truly knows what we’re going through. In this book, twelve authors will come alongside you to share their own high school experiences and to help you know that Jesus makes a difference in your unique struggles. He sees us and knows us fully.
These testimonies of growing up Asian American include struggles with belonging, performance issues, fear of failure, living in an honor/shame culture, immigrant parents, eating disorders, sexual assault, and adoption. Each writer now walks faithfully with Jesus in all of their ethnic and cultural distinctions. These stories lift up the Asian American experience with dignity and give you the opportunity to find both representation and a sense of belonging and worth.
- Edited by Kevin Yi with a foreword by Cameron Cole, this book is a part of The Jesus I Wish I Knew in High School series from Rooted Ministry.
- Each chapter includes discussion questions and is suitable for devotional reading, Sunday school, youth group, and one-on-one discipleship.
- For teenagers, their parents, pastors, and others who want to understand and apply the gospel to the Asian American youth experience.
