Eunil David Cho

Eunil David Cho is Assistant Professor of Spiritual Care and Counseling in the School of Theology at Boston University. He is a practical theologian whose research in pastoral theology and spiritual care, especially among immigrant and refugee communities in North America, engages the fields of psychology of religion, congregational studies, and Asian American theologies and ministry. He teaches a range of courses in spiritual care, chaplaincy, and practical theology to which he brings proficiency in critical race theory, narrative theories, global migration, and qualitative research methods.

His academic and professional publications have appeared in a number of academic journals, encyclopedias, and ministerial magazines. He is in the process of completing a book which is titled, Making Sense of Life with God: Religious Stories Dreamers Tell in the Face of Uncertainty (Brill’s Theology in Practice Series). This book examines how Asian American undocumented young adults cope with their experience of uncertainty and engage in the process of meaning making through faith-based community services and activism. He is an ordained minister in the Presbyterian Church (USA). Email: eunilcho@bu.edu
