Hokkaido RFKC Trip Prayer Requests
Please pray that we will all be alert and careful to keep our focus on the Lord. We had experienced much opposition coming before the trip. Pray for us that: the door may be opened for us to share the gospel clearly and relevant for the special children there. We are not primarily there for [...]
Thinking about Death
Yesterday in Vic’s room i picked up “Tuesday with Morris” and started reading. An old and dying professor shares with his young grad student his journey of facing death and taught him how to live life differently— by knowing how he wants to die. A few weeks back we watched a Japanese movie titled “Departures”. [...]
Why should my single pursuit be to study and apply the Bible?
I’m simply penning some conclusions from my devotional readings this morning. First, two statements from the ESV Study Bible article on Biblical Doctrine: “Knowledge without devotion is cold, dead orthodoxy. Devotion without knowledge is irrational instability. But true knowledge of God includes understanding everything from his perspective. Theology is learning to think God’s thoughts after [...]
What is real success?
Sitting around having a designer’s block may not be a bad thing. I may not meet my deadline of producing the brochure draft on time, but you may end up with unexpected benefits. While I was just randomly reading on some of my favourites, an ad for JP Moreland’s new book caught my eye. That [...]
Probably the funniest video about Japan you’ve ever seen (well, about Osaka anyway)
My students told me all about this part of the New Year program on January First last year and it was so hilarious… that I said “Dang! I really wish I’d caught that”… well, yesterday some stranger posts it and today I receive a conference invitation email with the guy’s blog link, to see the [...]

Here I am trying to pen down my response to what was taught by Michael Card and Edmund Chan this morning. And Lord, I do not want to be reasoning about you without meeting with you. Speak to me what you will Lord. I seek you. Apply! Apply the truth. One important revelation through Michael [...]
First post in 2009: The site is back up
At the end of the year we sent out our update newsletter together with a Christmas/New Year card that was one of our favourite wedding photos. That card had on it in big, bold print this website. But I didn’t realise that for most of the last few days of December and the first five [...]
Apple Crumble tops the day!
Follow up from the earlier post: after the retreat time we celebrated our one month with a Kopitiam dinner of my new favourite food Masala Thosai, and Candy’s Qiulian Banmian’s Kou Rou noodles. Truly amazing. We adjourned to Swensen’s for our reward of the day: Apple Crumble. To commemorate, we took seven or eight shots [...]
We got married today!
Thank you God, and all those who helped. We can’t thank everybody enough!
