Puritan Books Giveaway

Friday, February 22nd, 2008

I’m giving away some excellent Puritan works! See below for details.
I love the Christian writings by 16th-17th century Puritans! They, by their works, though dead, yet speak. I wish that we have more authors like them today. I still remember the first time I was drawn to read them. It was […]

My Books and Photos

Tuesday, February 5th, 2008

I purchased a new bookshelf last week! So glad about that. It’s really long overdue. Up until yesterday I’ve been keeping my books in two small bookshelves. Of course, those bookcases were too small to contain even my very modest, small home library that I’ve had to put many books into some boxes […]

Thursday, December 6th, 2007

The Reason For My Life

Thursday, September 21st, 2006

I have a new book I really like recently titled Walking From East to West: God in the Shadows. It’s an autobiography of Dr. Ravi Zacharias, who is a world-renowned Christian thinker and apologist. I sat reading this book just this past summer under the uncomfortable heat and humidity of a 3-digit temperature, but finished it in […]

Daily Gems

If we do not abide in prayer, we will abide in temptation. Let this be one aspect of our daily intercession: "God, preserve my soul, and keep my heart and all its ways so that I will not be entangled." When this is true in our lives, a passing temptation will not overcome us. We will remain free while others lie in bondage.
