AAPI Voices of Pax
At Pax, our mission is to inspire and equip the next generation through slow, beautiful, Jesus-centered content led by Christians of color. We are grateful for the Asian American voices of Pax that have guided us this past year to a greater understanding and embodiment of peace, justice, and wholeness as followers of Christ.
For AAPI History Month, we want to highlight the artists and writers who have contributed a wide array of theologically-rich resources on pursuing the peace of Jesus in the 21st century. From our StoryArcs to Marketplace resources and social media, allow these incredible voices of Asian American men and women to guide you through a collection of multi-sensory discipleship materials to study and pursue shalom in your own life.
