<p>&#34;More Than Serving Tea: Asian American Women on Expectations, Relationships, Leadership and Faith&#34;</p>
<p>Asian American women are caught between different worlds. Many grew up sensing that daughters were not as valuable as sons. Family expectations and cultural stereotypes assume that Asian American women can only have certain prescribed roles, as if our worth comes only through what we do for others.</p>
<p>But God has good news for Asian American women. In his eyes, they are his beloved daughters, created for greater purposes than the roles imposed upon us. In this one-of-a-kind book, a team of Asian American women share how God has redeemed their stories and helped them move beyond cultural and gender constraints. With the help of biblical role models and modern-day mentors, these women have discovered how God works through their ethnic identity, freeing them to use their gifts and empowering them to serve and lead.</p>
<p>Join us as Stanford Alum, Nikki Toyama, sheds light on common threads in the Asian American experience, providing encouragement and guidance to others on the journey.</p>
