Abstract
Chapter 7 describes She findings and introduces the emerging core themes. The analysis begins to synthesize the findings with the background material highlighted in previous chapters. It includes data and analysis of the private and group interviews as well as the participants’ input, corrections, comments, and suggestions upon the sharing of data and analysis transcripts. Finally, the chapter incorporates Richard Osrner’s four tasks of practical theology with the emerging themes and wrestles with what they mean for religious education in the Korean American context as well as in the personal day-to-day lives of churched Korean American girls.
