    Asia Family & Children

    Parents can too easily experience continual frustration and marital conflict because of their children’s lack of obedience. Homes lack joy. Instead, they are filled with angry voices and aggravated cries, as parents try their best to do a job they have no training for and few (if any) healthy role models.

  • Trusting in God's presence in the midst of strangers

    Asia Church & Missions

    When God calls us out from our homes, we go as strangers to lands that are strange to us. Yet, God goes ahead of us and stays with us, challenging us to always trust in him.

    As new Christians (especially if you're non-Western) we are too often taught that our ethnic identity should be ignored or even suppressed in favor of a spiritual identity. Our teachers ignore the fact that Evangelical Christianity is heavily interpreted through a Western lens. Non-Westerners will flourish in Christ if they are encouraged to embrace the redeemed benefits of their unique ethnicity, because that is part of them being a gift from God as a blessing to the Church and the world.
