The Cry of a Father

I read this touching story told by Tim Challies about an encounter between a pastor and a theologian. Those who know me, know that I'm not an emotional guy...

Anyways, here's the link: A Blessed Assurance

Reach the Unreached

Just to let you know, the link to "Reach the Unreached" has changed from www.melissamltan.blogspot.com to www.reachtheunreached.blogspot.com

Priscilla Accepted as an OMF Associate!

OMF is an international organization that I work for. They specialize in the "urgent evangelization of East Asia's peoples." My wife and I specifically work in the short term missions department, called Serve Asia.



I am proud to announce that we have officially accepted Priscilla Kim, a good friend and part of our faith community, as a member of our Serve Asia team. She will be handling much of our administrative needs, amongst other things. Together, we hope to bombard Asia with Gospel-minded, evangelical Christians who want to see what God is doing in that part of the world!

For more information on Serve Asia opportunities from Canada, please visit: www.omf.org/omf/canada

An Ideal Christian Woman

Not my thoughts, but the biblical reflections of a woman at Mars Hill Church: Check it out you women!

When Should I get Married?

Not everyone gets married fast.

Melissa and I may be an exception, but I noticed that more people around me date for a long time before they get married. At least in comparison to older generations, the trend in society is for people to get married later, if at all. Every situation and person is different, so there are a plethora of reasons for these trends.

But I have to wonder, can we more definitively discern when a couple should or should not get married? To answer the former, there's an article that grapples with the biblical understanding of marrying sooner rather than later. Check it out: Marry soon!

Difference b/w Men and Women

Men watch out! A study from Deloitte & Touche USA concludes:

"Body language differs by gender. Men tend to stare as they listen and nod to signify they understand. Women may nod when they don't yet understand to encourage the speaker to keep talking."

Women Incognito!

Paranoia is another way of not trusting the providence of God... but that doesn't mean it isn't funny when it leads people to do hilarious things!
