On this episode of Ten Talents, Keith Koo speaks with Tina Teng-Henson, a sent missionary through DEO Works, hospice chaplain, full-time parent, and ministry leader whose journey of faith spans prestigious halls and pressing human needs. From serving with InterVarsity Christian Fellowship at Harvard to full-time ministry leadership in California churches, Tina shares how her calling has taken her through academia, chaplaincy, parenting, and now community mobilization.

We dive into her reflections on walking with God in every season, her deep burden for spiritual and physical healing, and how grief, music, and ministry intersect in her latest endeavor — a benefit concert for victims of the devastating Altadena fire.
