Book Review: Paul, Community, and Discipline: Establishing Boundaries and Dealing with the Disorderly by Adam G. White

feminist perspective with diverse theological perspectives. For instance, by introducing intersectionality as a tool to analyze Asian American females’ multiple intersecting systems of oppression, she transcends marginality as a place for resistance against invisibility and a creative place where marginalized voices can be celebrated. She views Jesus as the liberator who frees the marginalized and gives hope to all (157). She also asserts that Asian American women’s voices can be powerful because their voices incorporate the richness of Asian heritage, practices, and beliefs such as Ou-ri (the Korean language to highlight collectiveness over individual selves), jeong (a strong emotional connection to the deep-rooted sense of community), han (collective pain from unjust misery), and Chi (the dynamic power to bring faith and new life). Beyond proposing such abundant Asian American theological perspectives, the author encourages Asian American females to be God’s agency by building a new voice for themselves and cultivating the strength to liberate all invisible people. She invites them to participate in God’s kin-dom, which is the union of kindred persons who accept their interconnectedness and respond to oppression in terms of solidarity. Her theology of visibility not only theologizes women’s experience and honors no-named women’s stories but also invites people to put their theological confidence into action for God’s kin-dom, in which no ethnic groups are invisible and eliminated. Regarding this book’s intended audience, the book has a diverse readership. For Asian Americans, this book allows them to experience self-wakening moments because it them inspects the historical and social evidence for their vague social status, and it calls to action as God’s agency. For church leaders, it will be helpful to understand Asian Americans’ unspoken struggle and recover their distorted human dignity. For seminarians, regardless of race and ethnicity, it allows them to learn diverse Asian American theological conceptions that are integrated with Asian philosophy, culture, and experience. Concerning the strong points of the book, her personal stories combining her people’s stories—Asian American history—is influential in liberating Asian American women readers from the internalization of white supremacy. Her narratives assuredly make invisible Asian American women visible and vocal in public.
