On this episode, we are joined by Rev. Orlando Crespo, National Director of LaFe at InterVarsity. We revisit his groundbreaking book Being Latino in Christ: Finding Wholeness in your Ethnic Identity nearly twenty years later. We ask him how the last twenty years have expanded his insights, what he would change, and how to bring reconciliation between white and afro-latinos, Latino immigrants and their diaspora children.
