Robert Chao Romero Welcomes You to the Brown Church
Season 1, Episode 1 (36 minutes)
Episode Description
Who are those family members that you just do not know well, if at all? Who are those distant relatives that you are related to, but they are still strangers and mysteries to you? In this episode, author Robert Chao Romero wants to introduce you to Latino and Latina Christians, who do not often feel like welcome and wanted family members in the body of Christ, and share how his book Brown Church gave them the feeling of belonging. You’ll also hear Robert’s story of reaching the height of professional accomplishment—and still having challenges with landing a book contract. And you’ll get goosebumps when you hear the way in which God brought Robert to IVP, not knowing there was a spiritual connection going back for generations that he unexpectedly discovered on a visit to IVP headquarters in 2016.
