Exploring Assumptions and Revisiting Conclusions
A Resolution for Faithfulness
December 21, 2011
Bait and switch. We hate the way this marketing tactic takes us for fools – but have we come to accept it as the norm in our spiritual lives? Take this promise from Jesus: I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved. They will come in and go out, and find pasture…… [Read more…]

All I Want for Christmas
December 19, 2011
This may sound totally conceited but I’m sure tons of people want to give me gifts for Christmas because I’m a great person… Okay I take that back – it’s more like wishful thinking. Still, if you’re feeling like a cheerful giver, I’d appreciate some financial support to buy bibles for the new year. Read… [Read more…]

Street Evangelism – September 11, 2011
September 11, 2011
So I couldn’t help my curiosity – I had to find out how long it took to distribute 50 gospels of John in the busiest area of Richmond.

Ever since taking the Perspectives Class early this year, I have been wondering how I can act on my new found eagerness to share the Good News. Perspectives emphasizes the importance of bringing God’s word to the remaining unreached peoples of the world, but several short term mission trips I planned to join didn’t work… [Read more…]

Soma: A Body that Represents Christ
August 6, 2011
Can’t believe how long I haven’t posted. But this video has inspired me once again. I’ve been captivated for the past year about the idea of Missional churches but the concept is too abstract for me to explain. One thing I can say is that being Missional is not just a fad, not just a… [Read more…]

Single in Christ: A Name Better Than Sons and Daughters
August 29, 2010
John Piper: "My main point is that God promises those of you who remain single in Christ blessings that are better than the blessings of marriage and children, and he calls you to display, by the Christ-exalting devotion of your singleness, the truths about Christ and his kingdom that shine more clearly through singleness than through marriage and childrearing."
