  • Fulfilled Promises

    On his last visit to Redding, Brian Simmons – the author of the Passion Translation – hosted a conference.

  • Root Cause Analysis – a devotion waiting to happen

    As I look at the title of this article I had a little chortle to myself. The reason for this is that I can recall the situation I was in when I learnt about Root Cause Analysis. As a result of my work, I was invited to participate in the training and there were various sign-up options.

  • From China to Christian faith

    I was born in South West of China, the city of Chongqing. It is known as the \"mountain city\" and this was where I grew up for 19 years. I completed my primary and secondary school there and in all those 19 years, I never once heard about the word \"Christian\".

  • Broken yet beautiful

    The story is told of an emperor, in a great palace. During the season of royal visits, kings and princes called on one another and admired each others\' choicest possessions, and enjoyed bountiful banquets.

  • A relentless pursuit of joy

    The greatest myth that I ever believed was that \'truest joy\' was something that should spring up on its own. Fumbling about through life I should just happen upon it, like a drunken pirate upon buried treasure.
