Transforming lives. Transforming the world.

Changes in Indonesia

Today in Jakarta, the former president of Indonesia, Mr. Suharto passed away from multi-organ failure at the age of 86. This is pretty big news in light of some of the things that happened during his 32-year presidency. Some people have labeled him as a dictator and charged him with corruption. Others have spoken somewhat […]

Josiah’s B-Ball Tourney

This morning Josiah had a basketball tournament and they ended up coming in 2nd place. It is the heart’s desire for every parent to see their kids have more playing time, but we have to always remind ourselves that it is always about the team. Since this is his first year playing organized basketball as […]

Cutting EDGE

This week, after the retreat, I had some time to think and reflect. I was thinking, “What do we need to do now in light of the blessings that we have received from the Lord?” Especially, with only 3 months left in this semester. What we do in these next 3 months will lay a […]

Gender Differences in a Car Ride

Yesterday I spent the whole day with the women in our family (Christina and KiKi). Christina and I picked up KiKi from school and to see the joy on KiKi’s face was worth it all. After getting her buckled in, I asked her how school was and she would not stop talking! This got me […]

The Campus Blog Update

It has been exciting to hear and read about what God is doing in our undergraduate ministry. We have always been stressing the importance of this ministry. It has always been our “bread and butter.” It is a vital component of the greater vision of transformation – if we reach the campus, we will reach […]

The Amazing Band

One of my pastor friends, Dave Lee from Harvest Community Church in Chicago is a YouTube master and monster. He is able to find some of the craziest video on the world-wide web. It is insane! Either he has too much time on his hands or he is desperately looking for sermon illustrations 🙂 But […]

L3 Update – 01.23.08

The Leadership Lesson Luncheons (L3) have been going well. I have been enjoying my time with some of the undergraduates in our church as we brown bag our lunch and talk about issues relevant to leadership. There is no better context for me than having college students who are hungry to learn about leadership principles. […]

Faithfulness in Small Things

Today I sort of took a half day from work (ministry), even though I had a lot of things to do. I realized that it is so easy to get excited about ministry and transforming the world, but when it comes to some of the little things around the house it can become very tedious […]

MLK 2008

        Whenever Martin Luther King, Jr’s birthday celebration comes around, I am always reminded about 3 things – the dream, the determination and the destiny. The infamous speech that was delivered on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in 1963 encapsulated a dream for the future. What would happen if God’s people […]

2008 Retreat Reflection

It has been an awesome 3 days with the church family at Gull Lake. There are a lot of things I am thankful for as I reflect on this historic retreat. First of all, I am thankful that both churches, in Ann Arbor and Chicago were able to come together and worship as one body. […]

2008 Winter Congregational Retreat

        The start of the retreat is finally here. It is exciting to hear that this will be one of the highest attended retreats in our church history. We are particularly pumped about having HMCC of Chicago join us. The theme will be “Undivided” – two churches but one community of faith […]

2008 Married Couples’ Small Group

It was great breaking fast together yesterday with some of the members in our small group. For some people it was their first time fasting, so it was encouraging to hear that they persevered all the way until the end! As our married couple population has been growing, we had to split up our groups. […]

Retreat 2008 Fasting

For the last week and a half, the various small groups have been taking turns in fasting for the Winter Congregational Retreat. There is something about prayer and fasting that brings a church together. Today is our married couples small group’s turn. I am always encouraged to see people who are married (especially those who […]

Michigan Primary 2008

        Today, Christina and I went out for our breakfast date and chit-chatted about various things. It is good that we keep on touching base. I realized that in the midst of all our busyness with church and raising kids, it is tempting to make this a lower priority. But by the […]
