November 7, 2022 Li Sean Talk about Life, Truth Monthly

Author: Helen Man Translator: Kim Ng The United Nations General Assembly established October 1 as the International Day of Older Persons which was observed for the first time on October 1, 1991. The holiday is to raise our awareness about the elderly’s well-being. The aging population in the world has been increasing rapidly.

【Immigrants from Mainland China】Soul and Spiritual World

October 19, 2022 Li Sean Talk about Life, Truth Monthly

Author: Solid Road In this issue, we will touch on the depth of the hearts of immigrants from Mainland China, a susceptible and challenging part to discover. Although they advocate the virtues of saints, emphasize spiritual beauty, and respect noble sentiments and noble spirits, their hearts are heavy, and their lives are not accessible. The history of the Japanese invasion, the Chinese Civil War, the political movements at various stages, reform, and opening after the New China founded caused dramatic changes in the social system. Social competition affected not only one generation but the second and third generations. As a result, people have developed trauma, resentment, bitterness, sadness,

October 17, 2022 Li Sean Talk about Life, Truth Monthly

Author: Helen Man My family and I have recently visited the Museum of the Bible. It was a fantastic experience.

【Letters From Jun】Life is the Song of Amazing Grace

October 14, 2022 Li Sean Gospel Letters, Truth Monthly

Today I want to talk about the grace of God from a hymn that touched me to help us know God more deeply. One may live for a few decades before facing death. Most people say that all good or bad things will eventually end in life and death. Every day that passes implies we lose some time, and we get a little closer to the end of our lives. People can’t choose their arrival and return dates, and the time in between fill with worries, fear, and overwhelming, especially when we experience the ups and downs of the world. As King Solomon wrote: “Meaningless! Meaningless! says the

【Doctor’s Heart】Find Your First Love Again

October 5, 2022 Li Sean Testimony, Truth Monthly

Dr. Luke “Yet I hold this against you: You have forsaken the love you had at first. Consider how far you have fallen! Repent and do the things you did at first. If you do not repent, I will come to you and remove your lampstand from its place.” (Revelation 2:4-5) Vision without sharing dissipates, faith without test weakens, and love without renewal fades. When I first practiced medicine thirty-plus years ago, loving people with passion filled my heart. I spent a long time listening to their concerns, healed their illnesses, and frequently led people to Christ. My heart was full of joy. I built a library in

Tips of Evangelism – Ways for the Old and the Wicked

October 3, 2022 Li Sean Evangelism Tips, Truth Monthly

Author: Pond Chan One of our evangelistic fears is facing the elderly (because they feel dignified, are relatively stubborn & experienced in life). In addition are facing the wicked (because they feel vicious, dominating & powerful), afraid of being scolded or driven away, so they dare not speak. When we remember: we must pray that the Lord will send us and give us power and authority. (Ref. Romans 10:15 / Matthew 28:18-20) Ask the Holy Spirit to give you boldness, eloquence, wisdom, and guidance to those of gospel target yours. (Ref. Ephesians 6:19/Acts 10:44) When preaching the gospel, knowing that the Lord will walk with us and relying

The Practice of “Declutter”

September 30, 2022 Li Sean Talk about Life, Truth Monthly

Author: Raymond Cheng CreationCare120 Founding Member creationcare120.info Whether living in a house that hasn’t been renovated in years or moving into a new environment, most people will consider giving their home a new look. But renovating your home does require some driving force. This summer, I was determined to remodel my home, forcing me to clear out household items that had been piling up for nearly three decades since we immigrated here. The driving force comes from two aspects: one is the external force. For example, when family members and friends suggest bringing new inspiration to home design, they are more willing to help to clear out unneeded

【Testifying God in Workplace】You Are Standing on Holy Ground

September 29, 2022 Li Sean Testimony, Truth Monthly

Cindy Shum 2022-08 Now Moses was tending the flock of Jethro his father-in-law, the priest of Midian, and he led the flock to the far side of the wilderness and came to Horeb, the mountain of God. 2 There the angel of the Lord appeared to him in flames of fire from within a bush. Moses saw that though the bush was on fire it did not burn up. 3 So Moses thought, “I will go over and see this strange sight—why the bush does not burn up.” 4 When the Lord saw that he had gone over to look, God called to him from within the bush, “Moses! Moses!” And Moses said, “Here I am.” 5 “Do not come any closer,” God said. “Take off your

Soldier 2022-08 In the first four releases, we explored the outlook on life and work, culture and history, education, and family. This installment explores ideas and thinking patterns that lead to these ideas. Many immigrants from Mainland China come to Canada. After learning and encountering conflicts, they will change their thoughts and ways of thinking. However, stereotypes and habits of thinking still play a role. The culture experienced by immigrants from Mainland China is thousands of years of authoritarian culture, Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism with Chinese characteristics. A scholar’s conclusion described Mainlanders’ thinking mode in graphics, mainly showing the thinking of point, line, bipolar, plane, and three-dimensional thinking.
