Abstract

Migration is changing and revitalizing the religious and cultural landscape of the United States. This article explores the theme of migration and belonging within the Asian Indian Christian community. Building upon this theme, the article draws attention to the myth of Asian Indians being a “model community” and experiences of foreignness of belonging. This article also argues that despite the perception of economic mobility, Asian Indians face discrimination and a sense of foreignness of belonging. It is suggested that autobiographical theology becomes a powerful tool to understand family, church, and community.
