Dios nos llama a ir
Dios nos llama a ir Hace casi siete años, después de orar durante cuatro años y estar fuera del ministerio de tiempo completo al que estaba convencido de que no volvería de nuevo, Dios nos llamó a Tyler Texas para plantar un campus español. No tenía idea de cómo se vería, pero había estado viendo […]

Hispanic Culture: Comida (barriga llena corazón contento)
Another cultural characteristic of Hispanic culture is food. There is no question that Hispanics love food. The saying, “Barriga llena corazón contento” (stomach full, happy heart) has the idea that when you have eaten well, you feel happy and satisfied. It reflects the Hispanic culture’s attitude that food has a special place in daily living […]

Hispanic Culture: Pasión (de corazón).
Another characteristic of Hispanic culture, one which is often misunderstood is “pasión” or passion. This is not limited to what we associate with romance (After all the Spanish language is part of the Romance languages) but more in general and how they embrace life.

One very important aspect of Hispanic culture is “personalismo” or the idea of being personal. This is an attribute that goes against being impersonal or individualistic which is prevalent in our American culture. “Personalismo” is seen in every aspect of Hispanic culture. It is evident in the family which extends itself to more than just […]

Normally, the father is the bread winner outside of the home. He works really hard to provide for his family. Usually, this involves long days and coming home […]

Hispanic Culture: Aquí Se Habla Español
In Hispanic culture the Spanish language is considered just as important as all other values (This is true of other cultures as well)[1] in establishing their identity. Not speaking Spanish, which usually happens with grandkids incurs shaming them with the title of “Gringo” (a slang term for White American) and not fully embracing your own cultural […]

A Short Summary of A Future For The Latino Church
Recently I began to think and pray upon the possibility of planting a new church. A church for Hispanics whose most dominant language is English. I grew up in a Spanish speaking church and consider myself a second generation Hispanic. I am bicultural and biliterate. But as the years have passed I notice that I […]
