Why Evangelism?
Last month, Rich gave us a series of class about evangelism. During one of his classes, he asked us if we would like to go outside the office and share gospels with people in the street. I had an answer in my mind at that time. I would not go definitely, since I feel it […]
Search me Lord, and know my heart
Last week, a student called Di mentioned to me a theory about 3 ways in which people acquire self-esteem. The first way is to compare with others. If a person does better than others, the person gains self-esteem. The second way is to match the goals a person made for […]
The honor of serving with IFI
I feel very blessed to work with IFI. The opportunity to work for the Lord and the assurance to make a difference in this world fills my heart with joy. I am surrounded by people who love the Lord, people I can follow and imitate as they follow and imitate Christ. One of the most […]
Let’s Talk About Love and Relationships
The change of priorities in life is the one of the biggest differences that I experienced after becoming a Christian. Growing up in a society that stresses the importance of getting ahead and competing against other people, I used to focus so much on personal growth and advancement.

The Waiting Place
It’s hard to believe the year with IFI is approaching to an end. I remember feeling frustrated when people started to ask me what my next steps are.

In Rich’s Evangelism class, we discussed about the challenges that we meet when sharing the gospel. There are many reasons that hinder us from sharing the gospel to others. Maybe we are afraid what others may react. It also possible that we are busy and do not have a heart or a plan to share […]
Let’s talk about fear
Fear, an unpleasant emotion caused by the belief that someone or something is dangerous, likely to cause pain, or a threat. It is unlikely that this is the emotion someone want to experience on a daily basis let alone let it take control over your life. Unfortunately, fear isn’t uncommon. At least at some point in […]
God is my provider
I am studying listening prayer with Keren Oliver and it is so much a blessing to have this class with her. We meet every Friday and I hope every day is Friday in a week. At first, it seems a little bit challenge for me to ‘listen’ to God. Mostly I pray to God about […]
