Abstract

Chapter 8 discusses the themes alongside the aforementioned contexts of immigration, Korean and Korean American faith practices, shamanism, Asian American mental health, and the re conceptualization of theological and spiritual formation studies among Korean American girls. The hope is to provide information that assists the future cultivation of gender affirming transformation for the Korean American church’s religious education of Korean American girls.
