FAQ

We are made up of primarily Asian-American English-speaking pastors who REALLY care about friendship and connection with other pastors. Many of us serve in churches within the SBC Asian Collective.

NextGen means more to us than reaching youth/young adults, as the term is commonly used. Many churches within the Asian Collective started with first-generation immigrant pastors. We want to honor the history and steward these churches well for the future by building up the Next Generation of pastors who can carry the baton and make disciples for future generations. This Network provides the intergenerational experiences, wisdom, and support to enable NextGen to grow and thrive in our contexts locally and nationally. 

We are very committed to strengthening denominational partnership which serves the local church. Our desire is to see our local churches be connected to other SBC entities beyond just financial giving. Asian churches in the SBC have a unique perspective and opportunity to serve together for the Great Commission.

Anyone can join! We care deeply about pastoral friendships. Our monthly book club meets on Zoom and we have regional events throughout the year. For more information, please reach out to our leadership team members. They will be glad to meet and get to know you.
