#143: Grace Ji-Sun Kim and Elisabeth Sophia Lee – Mother Daughter Speak – Podcast

Graham Joseph Hill interviews Grace Ji-Sun Kim and Elisabeth Sophia Lee about their book “Mother Daughter Speak.” The Global Church Project podcast episode #143.

 

“Even through tumultuous times, mother-daughter relationships sustain us and keep us connected.”

 

Mother-daughter relationships can be wonderful and powerful. They can also be stressful, challenging, and painful; yet they are often delicate and tender. After losing her own mother, Grace Ji-Sun Kim shares that strengthening her own mother-daughter relationship became more important than ever.

 

Grace Ji-Sun Kim’s and Elisabeth Sophia Lee’s personal reflections in this book from family, to real life challenges, to faith, are attempts to open the dialogue between family members and communities. They share some of their vulnerabilities and pains in hopes that this kind of sharing will encourage others to engage in similar intimate dialogue.
