INSPIRING & CHALLENGING THE CURIOUS TOWARD AUTHENTIC CHRISTIANITY. Pastor Mia Shin has a passion to reach this generation with the authentic person of Christ, empowering people to see their unique role in impacting eternity. Her 20 years of ministry include preaching, teaching, and mentoring in the Asian-American and multi-ethnic church contexts as well as in public high school and college settings. She received her M.Div from Talbot Theological Seminary at Biola and is a proud graduate of a national cohort of Asian American women pastors and leaders through ISAAC (Innovative Space for Asian American Christianity). Her community life outside church walls -- in her role as Co-Founder and Executive Director of AAPI SLO and Pastor of a new church plant -- exemplify her priority of holistic, community-centered faith. Pastor Mia’s husband of 24 years and their two sons lovingly support her ministries. In her spare time you will find her writing songs, singing her heart out, rock climbing, and having coffee outings with friends.
