Throughout the course of our Christian walks, most of us (I believe) truly desire a relationship with Christ on a deeper, more intimate level. More often than not, we know what we have to do. We know we ought to pray, read and study the Bible. We should love and display compassion. We should edify, evangelize, and exhort. But in the end, it feels like we’re always one step short of experiencing something (anything) spectacular with God.
We witness and hear about ‘spiritual giants’ and ‘passionate’ leaders that constantly seem to have intimate encounters and experiences with God, and we wonder. What sparks that intimacy?

I’m very excited to have a chance to proclaim truth and let it be heard. And I think sometimes, the reason why it takes me so long to post something is cause I write in a mini-sermon style. But the following will be flowing from my raw thoughts, cause I’m too lazy to edit this draft. More…

Often times, evangelism or outreach is exactly what this picture depicts – a crazy mix of uncertainty and fear. It’s crippling. Majority of us, Christians, don’t even think about outreach. And an even larger percentage of us have the wrong picture of what Jesus’ commission really means to our daily lives.
It has become increasingly harder to actively declare one’s faith in the modern day age of freedom and equality. And a lot of the times people (myself included) don’t even know where to start. I think a lot of Christians have become comfortable in ignoring this calling, or at least has not fully grasped the weight of evangelism. More…
