In this episode, Goldenwood Co-founder David Kim is joined by longtime friends and collaborators Makoto Fujimura, an internationally renowned visual artist and writer, and Haejin Shim Fujimura, a lawyer, entrepreneur, and justice advocate.
In this wide-ranging conversation, they explore how beauty and justice are not separate callings, but deeply intertwined realities—shaping how we respond to trauma, cultivate culture, and participate in God’s redemptive work in the world. Together, they discuss their newly released book Beauty and Justice and reflect on how their distinct vocations in art and advocacy converge in a shared vision of hope. Mako and Haejin invite us to imagine a way of working that resists fragmentation and instead reflects the wholeness of God’s kingdom.
