Firing of Amaker
It is almost prophetic after the comments made during the prayer time at ACCESS. It is a principle that I staunchly believe in – everything rises and falls with leadership! No team enters into a pre-season determining that they will be losers – in fact they aspire to be champions. With Michigan’s recent lost to […]
2007 St. Patrick’s Day
Today as I was on campus with my family, we saw a lot of people dressed up in green for St. Patrick’s Day. At first, I was wondering why so many people were dressing up in green but when I saw the shamrock I realized it was Paddy’s Day. This got me thinking… how many […]
Clean Up Day
This morning, I went to the boys’ school to help clean up their facilities. This is part of the “agreement” of being able to send them to this Christian school. Since the cost of sending our kids to this Christian school is financially very difficult, they try to cut the cost by having parents volunteer […]
Refocusing on Undergraduates
I just came back from tonight’s ACCESS (gathering for our undergraduate students). Since we switched the single adults’ small group to Friday nights, we have been getting more of a younger and vibrant feel on Fridays and it has been exciting. We are recasting the vision for reaching out to the campus – students reaching […]
Feminized Sissy Christian Men
Now that I have your attention! There is this debate going on about why men are falling off the face of the earth when it comes to church attendance. Some are arguing that everything about Church – from the songs to the activities – are more suited for women. They also contribute the movement of […]
Part 2 of the Naked Series
I realized that when it comes to participating in people’s freedom, Satan will attack from all fronts. Satan can even use people who are closest to you to discourage you or distract you. This is why we have to have God’s perspective on things. It is too easy to turn to our […]
Fickleness of the Weather
For us Michiganders, it has been such a dramatic change in the weather within the last 2-3 days. One day it is sunny and hitting the 60’s and then the next it is in the 20’s and 30’s with SNOW – incredible! The crazy part of this dramatic change is that we have to adjust […]
Car Problems
I have been thinking how families get by with just one car nowadays in the age of mobility. Something that used to be a luxury has now becoming more of a necessity. But there are a lot of families without even a car therefore, I am truly learning how to have a thankful heart. We […]
2007 NCAA Bracket
Ah yes… in less than 1.5 days, the madness begins. It has been a tradition of the Kim family to print out the brackets and then fill them out in order to compete with one another. It has been pretty interesting because Josiah is the repeat champion (won 2005 and 2006 tournaments). […]
Spring is Here
Well, not quite… but today was a perfect day for some outdoor activity. Our family went out for some ice cream and then got on our bikes for a quick ride around our complex. One lesson learned today… just because we were able to do something last year, it does not guarantee success the following […]
A Giant in the Faith
This past Sunday, Dr. Paul Hiebert a professor at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School passed away to be with the Lord. You can read the Trinity’s news regarding his passing here. You can also read President Greg Waybright’s letter. He was one of the professors at Trinity that helped me form some of my missiological paradigm. […]
Meetings in Chicago
When I stay in Chicago until Monday, I try to use these opportunities to spend time with my parents and meet up with various people. There are still a lot of people that I need to/ want to meet up with (sorry it is taking so long). This morning I met up with a pastor […]
This Is My First Time…
There is this great joy knowing that you’ve participated in the “first time” of someone’s life. As some of you know, part of the worship team flies out with me to help out with the HMCC of Chicago church plant. I am just amazed at the level of commitment of these worship team guys. Pretty […]
