The current MINISTRY EXHIBIT has many purposes. First, it is to introduce church ministry work to newcomers. During this time, the church ministry department will set up a booth to introduce their work and provide opportunities to be involved. Another reason is to do the ministry work on yearly basis. Ministry work is not something to start and end at one’s whim. Once you make a commitment, you needs to work on it diligently for a year and after a year, you will be given a chance to make another year’s commitment.
God grants us many talents. When we ...

When everyone was celebrating the Independence Day this past July with friends and family over a cookout, I was in my office working all alone. It was Saturday and New Life closed the church office. But KSC had their Saturday Early Morning Prayer at 6:30 am as usual. Since I am a pastoral staff at both New Life and KSC, I needed to go there. One deacon shared his testimonial message. It was one of the best deacons' messages ever. I was blessed.
After the prayer meeting, there was Deacons' Meeting as usual at 7:45 am. Again, I needed to be there as a staff. There were ...

I have several routines that I do daily or weekly. One of them is that I stop by at my neighborhood's McDonald's drive-through and get a small coffee with two creams on Sunday mornings as I come to church. I also do this at times on Saturdays when I come to work. It costs me $1.08 including tax.
A few Saturdays ago it was my turn to preach during Early Morning Prayer at KSC. I wanted to be wide awake for this. So, I decided to get a cup of coffee on the way. I pulled up my car to the drive-through and placed an order as usual: a small coffee with two creams. But the ...

Several house churches have multiplied in the recent past. We praise God for this! As we faithfully do our part by serving and loving on our VIPs, we see God doing His part by opening their hearts and enabling them to receive Christ as their Lord and Savior. As a result, we get to witness and celebrate baptism every month.
In one person coming to know Christ and getting saved, there are many people who pour out their sweat and tears and sacrifice their time and resources. That's why each baptism is very dear and precious. We must appreciate this because this unfortuna...

One of the Korean popular singers who declared the importance of premarital chastity was getting public attention and I heard that he would be on the show, so I watched the program. Five unmarried celebrities gave a speech to college students about dating and discussed their views as they watched the recording. Their views and what was discussed were quite surprising to me.
After they listened to the lecture emphasizing premarital chastity, four stars expressed their views. “OK, it is understandable that such a claim may be necessary since these days there is ...
