S6 Ep1 - From Congolese Immigrant To Christian School Bible Teacher - Emmanuel Engulu
Manage episode 282610660 series 2674386
At the age of 6, Emmanuel found himself responsible for his younger sister when both of their parents had immigrated to the United States from their homeland, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, as a result of political instability. He lived in an abusive environment and didn’t know if their father had even made it to the U.S. alive...until they got the invitation to join their family in Texas several years later. After being accompanied by a ‘guardian angel’ on their international journey, Emmanuel and his sister arrived in the U.S. and began assimilating and living the American Dream after reuniting with their parents. As he pursued his passion for basketball and ministry, Emmanuel continued to stay close to God and followed His calling on his life. The result was a clear and narrow path from undergrad to graduate school; meeting his wife; and his current position as a Christian High School Bible teacher. Hear how the clash of cultures that Emmanuel experienced have manifested in his inter-racial and intercultural marriage, his positions in ministry and American society, only to reveal the magnificent diversity and beauty of our Creator God.
