As many are thinking about several New Year’s resolutions, how about including this one on your list – a consistent Bible reading for the whole year. I don’t know any Christian who does not want to improve his/her Bible reading for the year. And there are several notable plans that can help. For instance, there [...]

Tonight (12/23) I preached John 1:10-13, a message entitled “The Jesus of Christmas.” I originally planned to impose the following question as my introduction: Who is this Jesus that the whole world is celebrating this season?

Posted in Biblical Studies, Church, Pastors, Preachers/Preaching on December 3, 2007 | 1 Comment »

Last night (12/2) I preached Part 2 of “A Biblical Church Life” from Acts 6:1-6. I believe what we can learn from this particular text directly impacts the life and growth of our church and other churches too. Since I already addressed first four points in the previous message, I started with #5 last night. [...]
