In our inaugural episode of the Mixed Blessing podcast, we have the honor of sitting down with Robert Chao Romero. We get to hear about his beautiful family legacy, the Black Lab dog that benevolently rules their household, his work with the Brown Church Institute, and so much more. Come break bread with us at the multiethnic table as Robert and I discuss everything from healing childhood hurts to the power of reclaiming language, and how our gracious God is in the midst of it all.
