All Resources
Iwa’s resources are like no others because they were designed specifically for a group of people for whom very few resources exist--people of Japanese and Asian ancestry. Postmoderns, who share characteristics that are similar to those of Japanese and Asian ancestry, have also found Iwa’s resources useful. These resources include pamphlets to help a person share the gospel in a culturally sensitive way; booklets, articles, and training materials to help people grow in their relationship with Christ; stories of real-life people and how Christ has become real to them in their daily lives; articles explaining insights on how to reach and minister to people of Japanese and Asian ancestry in effective and culturally sensitive ways; and publications which have recorded Iwa’s discoveries over the years.

A Date With Dad
This unconventional handbook was written from the perspective of God the Father who offers suggestions on how to spend a weekly date—Sabbath—with him. Iwa believes that Sabbath is a key to the evangelism that needs to take place in the Asian American community. order here |

Finding Father and Becoming Family
This booklet is a tool that presents the Bible story in a relational way–as a family story about God as our Heavenly Father; and human beings as children who broke away from His family; and God’s Son, Jesus, as the one came to bring us back into the family, at infinite cost to Himself and to the Father because of their incredible love for us. It is not a ‘tract’ to be passed out indiscriminately. But it is a story to be shared with those who already have had some exposure to Christ through Christians, and who want to find out more about the Bible and seek a clearer understanding of what it means to be a Christian. The story also helps deepen and enrich the faith of Christians who have only been exposed to a traditional Western presentation of the Gospel and not to a non-traditional, relational, group-oriented presentation, such as this story is. order here |

Seeing the Contagious Christian Course With Asian American Eyes
This booklet provides a review of the Willow Creek Association’s popular evangelism training program, the Contagious Christian Course, with suggestions on how to maximize its effectiveness for Asian Americans and other Asian people. It is not only valuable as an assessment of a particular evangelism training program, but is also valuable as an exposition of Iwa’s philosophy of evangelism.
