[Letter From Jun]The Brave One with Faith in Missions

Gospel Letters, Truth Monthly

Eric Huang In the last few letters, I mentioned that before I became a believer and while seeking the Truth, I became a friend of Nancy Clay, my Sunday School teacher, and her family. She often invites me to go with her family to Auburn Tiger football games at her children’s school, backcountry hikes, family dinners, movies, and more. One Christmas, they took me along, driving for a few hours to her parent’s hometown, Alexander City, to attend their annual Christmas family reunion. Not only did I have a turkey dinner with their family and receive many Christmas gifts, but I also had a fantastic interaction with them,

【Testifying God in Workplace】

Testimony, Truth Monthly

Cheung   2022-08 In a ‘blink’, I have worked as a real estate agent for over 20 years. Although this job didn’t give me a prestigious title or a profession that people admired and respected, I liked it because I could control my working hours.  I also love real estate investments and helping others find the right place to their liking as home. My husband and I were both at retirement age. We were self-employed with no long-term pension but only a tiny portion of the RRSP we had saved over the past few decades. We spend most of our income on our children. As a result, we want

【Shoes of the Gospel】Is it Hard to Lead Someone to Christ?

Evangelism Tips, Truth Monthly

Author: Trustworthy Message  2022-08 I would like to share a testimony with you all: February 16, 2022, on the morning of my surgery to remove my breast cancer tumor, I set my alarm clock to arrive at the hospital early in the morning, but I woke up an hour earlier than scheduled. So I asked the Heavenly Father, “What will I do with this extra hour?” The Holy Spirit spoke a name in my heart. So I called her immediately, and she was chatting with a classmate on Zoom. I suddenly thought that her classmate might be a non-believer! Does God want me to preach the gospel to

【Tips of Evangelism】「Ways To Preach As You Go」

Evangelism Tips, Truth Monthly

“The twelve Jesus sent out with the following instructions…As you go, proclaim this message: ‘The kingdom of heaven has come near.’” (Matt. 10:5-7) The Bible teaches us that when we “proclaim as we go” and “preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season,” we will meet different people and reactions.  How could we be courageous and skillful in handling them? It is necessary to walk with the Lord in prayer, and practice, speak of salvation knowledgeably, be equipped with the tools of the gospel, and be able to cope with meekness and humility. REMEMBER – you must pray that the Lord will send you and give

Abortion & the Bible

Talk about Life, Truth Monthly

Author: Helen Man Translator: Kim Ng Abortion Rights Overturned On June 24, 2022, the Supreme Court voted 6 (conservatives) to 3 ( liberals) for the case of “Donna v. Jackson Women’s Health” to overturn “Roe v. Wade 1973,” which had endorsed women’s rights to abortion 50 years ago. The decision was based on the 10th Amendment, that the right to abortion belongs to the people and their representatives. It means that each state makes its law about abortion. (Note 1) This new Supreme Court decision made on June 24, 2022, is similar to the breach in May despite all kinds of opposition, including protests, threats, and even attempted

[Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD)]

Talk about Life, Truth Monthly

By Little pill I love singing, whether it is Cantonese or English, contemporary or religious, and even Cantonese opera. So years ago, when I had a chronic cough, particularly at night, my voice became coarse, and I couldn’t sing many notes. I found out the issue was caused by stomach acid reflux causing damage to my vocal cord. When stomach acid repeatedly flows back into the esophagus, the tube connecting your mouth and stomach, this acid reflux can irritate the lining of your esophagus and throat. When acid reflux happens repeatedly chronically, it can cause Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). When you swallow, a circular band of muscle around

【Unceasing Journey of Mission 4】Rejoice With Those Who Rejoice; Mourn With Those Who Mourn

Truth Monthly, Unceasing Journey of Mission

Small Wood  2022-08 There are many Christians who like to quote Romans 12:1 to encourage each other, and I am, of course one of them. Nevertheless, how could this kind of transformation of mind that is “able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will” be revealed in daily life? How could it be not only the ideology of others or myself to receive but the experience in reality? It is especially crucial when we may transition the living from decades of working life into simple and ordinary ones in old age. Thank God for His Word, which is not a fairy tale;
