Discerning God's Call
Hmong American college students face unique pressures as they navigate their educational and career paths—from family expectations to cultural values to societal demands for success. Many wrestle with questions about God's purpose for their lives and wonder how their personal aspirations fit into it. This seminar will explore how our cultural identity, faith, and individual gifts intersect in discerning God's calling. Together, we'll practice a discernment exercise to help us make decisions that honor both our faith and personal aspirations.

Tiger Parents and the Lion of Judah: How to Navigate Family Expectations and Kingdom Calling

Navigating hard conversations and conflict
Conflict is uncomfortable, but avoiding it can keep us from building real, meaningful relationships. This seminar invites students to explore how honesty, openness, and a willingness to engage in hard conversations can strengthen friendships, deepen community, and reflect our faith. Together, we’ll unpack what conflict is, why we fear it, and how we can approach it in a way that honors both others and God. What does it look like to trust God in the midst of unresolved tensions? How do we submit our relationships and conflicts to Him? Join us as we learn how to navigate conflict with courage, humility, and faith.
